My theater's costume collection also has a stole, or scarf, or
shoulder drape (we're not sure how it was meant to be worn) with two
minks sewn side-by-side and a single mink below. There are no clips,
but the single mink has a cord with crocheted ball hanging from the
underside.

Two are sewn side to side and two have the clips. I know they were
all worn
together but I haven't figure out how yet. But the definitely are
sewn side
by side.

side by side and worn over the shoulder?
I'm pretty sure they wore them end to end, not side by side. I've
seen
them in older movies, both mink and foxes, sometimes a few worn
around like
a large collar, sometimes many worn draped across the front and
back and
hanging down both like a large taxidermy scarf.
