- Lot 515 at 1835 sale.
Following note by Richard Parkinson: "This was seen by Hay among Yanni's objects in Luxor, before the d'Athanasi sale (BL Add MS). = Salt 1835 lot 515. From same tomb as two model boats EA 9924-5." [Probably correct d'Athanasi to Salt, and boats are 9524-5]
This could refer to Hay Mss 29844A which mentions a number of objects apparently now in the BM; compare also diary 31054, f. 90, where Athanasi's antiquities are 'all lined up'. cf Tillett, Egypt Itself, 23.
