Beschreibung:
A Branded Seal Skin. This skin was taken from a female seal killed in the Harbor at Akon, Aleutian Island, in November 1896, and turned over to the commission by Mr. A. Gray, of Unalaska. In the process of tanning a portion of the skin burned by the iron has fallen out, showing the effectiveness of branding as a means of depreciating the value of pelagic skins.
