Handlist description: Third (inner) shrine

Card/Transcription No.: 238-26 


Turf Club,
Cairo, Egypt

Dear Howard Carter,


I have recently analysed the metal of one of the tongues of Shrine No 238 and found it to be copper and
not bronze, and thought you might care to know the result.


With all kind regards,


Yours sincerely


A. Lucas


P.S. The second (from inside) shrine (238) is now erected and looks very well.
