As he was an avid collector of charms (ofuda) and votive slips (senjafuda or nosatsu), he was called Dr. Ofuda in Japan. He sold much of this collection to art collector and museum specialist Gertrude Bass Warner, and it currently resides at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art at the University of Oregon and the University of Oregon Knight Library Special Collections & University Archives. Starr was also the curator of geology and the ethological collection at the American Museum of Natural History in New York from 1889 to 1891. FORN-MSB-0324-TUB0011-JC270
