DescriptionFrom an article/photograph published in Tempe Daily News, June 30, 1977:A Rare Find -
Virtually every "nook and cranny" in the Robert Brooks' home in Queen Creek boasts a rare collector's find. One the coffee table above, the jiddito, early Hopi ladle (center) still complete with its handle, is one of the Brooks' rare finds. The Mimbres pot at left was likely chipped purposely to "let the spirits out" when it was buried with its Indian owner.
The film negative of this photograph is housed in box 2G7-C.
