READING THE RECORD

WHAT THE
OBJECT REVEALS

This exhibit fixes a point in the MT E.L.K. story through a surviving american hunter record. The publication, date, people, and product are indexed so the object can be understood in relation to the wider collection.

Read beside related records, the document shows how field knowledge moved between people, products, media, education, and business relationships. Details that remain uncertain are left visibly open rather than filled with assumption.

Every object answers one question and opens another. The archive grows by keeping both visible.
