Ken K Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Late to the party here Scott as I'm new to the forum. Beautiful collection. One thing that struck me is not only the depth of the collection but the quality. Your collection so "viewable" due to the variety of taxa you display. Its like going to six different museums at one time! Well played...Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

minnbuckeye Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 @piranha As usual, I woke up at 5:00 am this morning, made my cup of tea, sat down at the computer and logged into TFF. One of the first topics that I clicked on was "The Collection". Probably an hour later and my cup of tea still full but COLD, I finished admiring your assemblage!!!!!!!!!!! Let me just say that I now know why you recieved the Golden Drool Award and it went to someone that truly deserved it. Any one of MANY individual fossils in your collection would be deserving of such recognition. It is just shocking that I had not seen this before today.
