Scope note
Numbers that firms such as commercial art dealers or galleries may assign to objects when taking them in to stock. These are typically written or affixed on the objects themselves, and can be used to associate particular objects with entries in a stock or sales book. These numbers are not necessarily unique, and objects may have multiple stock numbers.
