The MacFarlane Collection contains small models of several types of sleds used by Inuvialuit for travelling on snow-covered ground. These models may have been commissioned since full-size sleds would have been difficult to ship the the Smithsonian Institution.
"(…) sleds consist of a wooden framework mounted on two rough hewn runners also made of wood (…) Eskimos apply ice-shoeing to their sledge runners (…)" (Émile Petitot, quoted in Savoie, 1971: 155)
