Unlike pristine souvenirs made for tourists, the extensive weathering, aged cotton squaw wrap, and historically chipped Cerrillos turquoise tabs provide undeniable proof of an earlier, pre-war lineage. It survives as a pristine historical time capsule, accompanied by its original July 7, 1962 Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) pawn paperwork and mid-century East Coast gallery box.
