Description
Square manilla envelope with one wooden square and one cardboard square with unknown purposes inside. The envelope has “Peter Whyte” written in cursive above “1.60” written in pencil - “9203” is stamped in black in the middle. The wooden square has a hole drilled in the middle and angled edges, making one side a slightly smaller square than the other, and there are two small pieces of white adhesive tape, one of which has random letters and numbers typed on it [possibly a spacer for a tripod]. The cardboard square has a small hole poked in the middle and blocked off on one side with what appears to be tinfoil taped down with several layers of red adhesive tape.
