(c) Sticks
50(v)  (a) On one stick there was a thin discoloured 

           metal band. This was very friable and was 

           chipping off. Treated with a solution of 

           Canada balsam in xylol <applied with a pipette>. This was a 

           mistake as the solution darkened the

           wood immediately beyond the ends of 

           the band. A solution of celluloid in

           amyl acetate would have been better.

50(oo) (b) Two sticks had metal each a narrow 

            metal band on top of metal. These a bands 

            were broken and loose. Stuck bands in 

            place by means of strong solution of celluloid 

            in amyl acetate applied with small brush.
Narrow band 

of gold on 

thin gold 

representing 

ferule.

Narrow gold 

band on gold

50(qq)  (c) Three sticks were covered in either in whole

50(vv)   or in part with loose and very friable bark.

50(ww) Sprayed repeatedly with a solution of 

              celluloid in amyl acetate. Used same 

              solution to stick on loose pieces.

50(ss) Part of ivory whip with gold <ornamentation> beads. Also several <discoloured metal> (apparently silver) bands on the gold. One of these silver bands was 

broken. Stuck it in place with solution of celluloid in amyl acetate.
