The jasper amulet is photo plated in Birger Albert
Pearson, Gnosticism and Christianity in Roman and
Coptic Egypt. Studies in Antiquity and Christianity
(Minneapolis : Fortress Press, 1990.) : 258 figure 1
and is labeled “Courtesy of the Blummer Gallery” an
obvious typo. See especially footnote 31 which
references Howard M. Jackson, The Lion Becomes Man :
the Gnostic Leontomorphic Creator and the Platonic
Tradition. SBL Dissertation Series No. 81 (Atlanta,
Ga. : Scholars Press, 1985.) : 21-22

I do not know of Jackson gives the current location.
