CAVI Footnotes: {1} on the shape see Beazley in AJA. {2} ...Ο......, CVA, USA 8, text.
---(.)---, photo, CVA, USA 11 (a blot). - The surface is nearly all flaked off
[on B]. An indistinct blot (not necessarily an O) to left of the center of the
handle zone; another minute trace is at right, about at the point where the last
letter is on A. "I see ... a vertical stroke perhaps of a `T' in the location of
the `T' in A." (Richter). Beazley (1927a), 346, saw a letter K at the beginning
(and no other), but it is no longer visible. According to Beazley's remark in
AJA this information came to him from Gallatin. Beazley also compares Athens
1357: παίδων κάλλιστε.
CAVI Comments: Ex Gallatin collection. Thick letters. Not your typical Attic writing, though
the alphabet id Attic.
