" Almost four months after the opening of the Museum, and nearly a year since Mr. Miller had tagged, crated, and shipped items from his personal collection for use at the Museum’s opening day, he received confirmation of his loaned items in the form of a receipt: “February 24, 1986…The enclosed Receipt for Loan form reflects the approximate date that you made the loan to the UDT-SEAL Museum Association, Inc.” (Receipt-Letter, 1986) The “Receipt for Loans” listed 37 items, many misspelled and poorly defined, for example, “Colt AR-15, SPl semi-auto, Ser. SP---- & SP----” (Receipt, 1986, p. 2). Those two firearms are all original Armalite “Greenie” parts except for the lower receivers listed on the document. Implying that by this time the tags with the item descriptions, Mr. Miller had sent along to establish provenance, were no longer attached. ”
