Estelle Nedell Collection

• 1921 (Vervaardig)
• 1908 (Vervaardig)

One acid-free folder.

The collection consists to two paper currency bills. The older of the two is from the pre-World War I German Empire and is dated for 1908. The other bill comes from the Soviet Union and is dated for 1921. Cyrillic script represents information on this bill.

Past practices described the contents of this collection individually. Each item received an object ID number and was treated as a distinct artifact. Records have been reunited, but their original order may have been lost.

No restrictions. Contact the Collections Department to arrange use for research.

Both bills are paper-based. The German bill is died with blue ink. The Russian bill with red ink. A single acid-free folder houses both bills with a slip of acid-free paper placed between them.

Despite their age, both bills remain in fair condition. Crease marks crisscross both. The paper remains flexible, but they should be handled with care that tears not form or become larger. White sections of them have yellowed and inks on them have slightly faded.

No restrictions. Reproductions are done and charged in accordance with Sloan Museum Archives Fee Service Policy.
