Great Basin Pitch Basket, 6" x 14" with horse
hair handles.  There is some chipping of the
pitch along the upper edge, however, in this

equipment.  Similar in construction to water jars
made by the Apache, Ute and others of the Great
Basin region.  I consulted a well know authority

seen anything quite like it.  Nor have I seen
similar items in recent auctions.

painted face, as are the hands. Conch shell

had a restoration of undergarment.  Doll 13" tall.
