I think that I've mentioned in the past that I occasionally do some prep work for a British paleontologist in exchange for some of his raw finds for my own collection which I get to work on myself. Well, another parcel arrived yesterday full of things to do for him and also a few ammonites for myself. I was particularly pleased to see the one pictured below, so pleased that I just had to put my preparation work on my own Callovian finds on hold in order to get this one prepped right away. It's a complete Stephanoceras humpresianum from the type horizon in Dorset with the end peristome at the aperture.

Thanks, although this one was relatively easy since it was already practically exposed as seen. I just needed to make it a bit more presentable.
