This is a close-up of a faded paper with handwritten and stamped text. The words "M.S." are written in bold, uneven letters, and below them, the year "1917" is scribbled in lighter pencil. There’s also a small handwritten note in cursive that looks like "90/178/399" and a faint line with a tiny mark above it. The mix of ink and pencil suggests someone was jotting down notes or cataloging something. The paper looks old, with small stains and wear. If you like this kind of handwritten record, check out the Museum of Ethnography.
