Scope and Content The original description in the SPHS register reads: "Perachora: proto-Corinthian fragments, early 7th century".
Notes Probably the re-use of this negative number (like SPHS 4726) by a later photograph (post-1930). The negative does not show proto-Corinthian fragments from Perachora. It appears to have been taken from a book or photographic catalogue with the caption: "274. Lécythe Blanc du <> fin du Ve s. Musee National Athénes (photo Emile Seraf )" is written on page.
