ynot Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Hey hi Y'All, Every year the rock club that I belong to puts displays in the local library to advertise their upcoming show. This year We are hosting the California federation for a 3 day show (a month earlier than usual.), September 16, 17 and 18, 2016 in Placerville. The club has put displays up in August (The club will also have displays up in September.) One of the August displays was set up by Me, with some of My Sharktooth Hill finds. Here is a picture of the display... I will post closer views if anyone is interested. Enjoy! Tony 1 Darwin said: " Man sprang from monkeys."

siteseer Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 (edited) Great display, Tony. It's a great representation of what you tend to find there plus some oddities. You are going to get a number of people wanting to stand there for a while to look at everything. I wouldn't be surprised if you got a prize for that. Jess Thank You Mike.

digit Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Looks like someone has been spending all of their free time at Shark Tooth Hill. Great display,Tony. Hope it raises some local interest. It would be cool if you could add a little card that said, "Interested? Check out www.thefossilforum.com" as it might prompt some people to discover the informational riches here. Advertising never hurts (unless you have to pay for it). Cheers. -Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludwigia Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 (edited) If you're supposed to keep quiet in that library, then that display is gonna make things a bit difficult due to all the exclamation marks that will be emanating around it! Nice job Tony! Looks good! Edited August 26, 2016 by Ludwigia Greetings from the Lake of Constance. Roger http://www.steinkern.de/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
