Smithsonian Institution Annual Report?
I am looking for an article called, ‘What is known of the migrations of some of the whalebone whales’ in the Smithsonian Institution Annual Report from 1928 or 1929, p. 467-496. The author is R Kellog. I found some of these report in the library catalog, but not from the correct year. Thank you for your help.
These Smithsonian reports are a bit confusing, but I think what you are looking for is this record:

A record for a serial or journal always includes information about what volumes the library has. In this case, the years 1900-1963/1964 are available at Olin Library under call number Q11S61. I was not able to find an electronic version. I’ve referred your question to the Olin Reference Desk for further assistance.
