| Summary: | The present model was made by Mr. Sandgreen to represent the kinds of models made in the past by Eskimo ancestors. The wooden pieces were carved to represent the actual landform of the islands and the carvings were attached to the sealskin base within pencil location outlines. Title and other bibliographic information were taken from a typewritten data sheet (3 x 5 in.) affixed to the bottom of the plywood baseboard. Oriented with north toward the upper right (appxrox. 40° west of north). Manuscript: The islands are painted in black, brown, and light blue to represent their actual colors. One of the carved wooden islands is missing adjacent to the left sheet edge near the N.W. corner. Includes north-south direction arrow drawn in lead-pencil at upper right and pencilled no. at sheet edge near the direction arrow.
