Related drawings: Oc2006-Drg-344 through to Oc2006-Drg-370, all depict objects in the British Museum's collection. PicDoc267 is a printed scanned copy of a handwritten list of British Museum object numbers (no drawing) used in an exhibition display. The list is therefore considered to associate with this collection as a whole, but not necessarily to individual drawings. The original handwritten list is stored with the rest of the collection of drawings: Cfa/Library/PictColl/drawer 37 (14/4/09).
