"Complete" probably to be identified with his AH MACAN MANUSCRIPT Cronica de Yaxkukul which was published by Juan Martinez Hernandez, "Cronicas Mayas: Cronica de Yaxkukul" Merida, 1926.
Acc. No.: 60.45
Note: Nov. 1983. Chris Burnett shot all these negs. onto 35mm master positive for protection. The negs in here are in many cases wretchedly shot, so prints will be practically illegible. The MS has suffered "print through" of writing on verso fo page, to make it worse.
