A.C. Bicknell 1959 Bearings Baird I Feb. 23 Coast near San Francisco, California Saw skin of or taken in 1957 whaling season by Don Monte Fishing Co. Dr Gilmour measured skin & I think his total length came out 1650 mm. I did not see the lasso tooth at top of Green Manana as it had been removed for safecasing by Mr. Carro. 2nd tooth projected out an inches or so above mano. Bone but seemed to without within the swobs. The animal's weight was 36 ft, total length The skull had 1 20cm or blades of - the other was only 6 inches long or so & covered above by rib bone bones of the skull rod. The skull was not noticeably asymmetrical in total length (weighed probably 20g?) nos) Greenish appearance. Skull had been steam-boiled in a large tank & the bones had apparently been lost or discarded. The men on the killer boat said they occasionally saw these whales but always in groups of 10-30?, never singly. The spout was said to be low (3-4 ft?) & "bushy". Name they used for this animal were "Bottle-nose whale" and "Bears spoon whale"
