REMARKS COMPILED IN 1987 BY ROY HAMILTON ON BASIS OF EXISTING RECORDS, EXAMINATION OF OBJECT, AND REVIEW OF THE LITERATURE: "Selendang"; used as a shawl, sash, or carrying sling. "Tulis" or hand drawn batik; on silk. The towns of Juana and Gresik on the North Coast of Java were particularly known as centers of production of silk batiks. See Elliott 1984:150-151 for a discussion of silk batik. Similar to X74.330; they are probably from the same town.
