[NHCOLL-L:1103] tusks/ivory

[Britney Hager]

Let me be a little more specific and spell everything correctly this time.
This person who called me described a piece of ivory that was about 27inches
long and 3inches wide.  He believes it is a piece of elephant tusk.  I think
maybe walrus.  But since I have not seen it, who knows.  Anyway, he wanted
to know if there was a test to determine if it is real.
