Here it is, the show booth layout!

 

What do yah think? did we get enough fish this year?

 

I am kind of fond of the table, it is fully lit all the way around the inside with LED lights!

Very nice!

 

Looking at the whole thing in person must feel a lot like visiting a large aquarium. :P

Is that the best you can do!?!

LOL (That's what I always said to my daughter when she came home with a 99 on a school test).

Looks great!

I want that fat Phareodus that's hanging over the giant Lepisosteus!

We will try harder next year I promise!

If anyone saw my other posts you might notice the croc is missing here!!

We just didn't have room, such a nice problem :)

There are still a few medium to small fish in boxes as well, hiding under the tables and in the trailer!

 

I am a big fan of phareodus, but my all time favourite is Notogoneous!

 

I got to keep a phareodus this year that I found, he will probably be prepped out next month. 

 

I will post pictures at some point. :P

Oh wow oh wow oh wow!

 

I love what I see here. Any close-ups of that gar? It looks like it has two heads lol.

Looking forward to meeting my fellow Singaporean collectors! Do PM me if you are a Singaporean, or an overseas fossil-collector coming here for a holiday!

Here is a close up of the Gar head, Microscope prep had been finished, but we hadn't covered the crack yet ;)

He does indeed have 2 heads!

The top plate of the cranium floated away a little. It's bound to happen when you get such a large piece of bone!

I like it because you can see just about everyone of the cranial elements and the teeth from the top of the jaw!

That is mighty impressive Blake!  I have always loved the fishes.  Some really super pieces there!  Love the balance on some of those multi plates too.   Thanks for showing us.

I would have loved to stop by, but I quit going to Tucson years ago.  Glad you had a great time.
