Life started in the ocean. And so did my interest in fossils. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I do like to recycle and reuse . I got lots of cool stuff from the college I work at, when science moved rooms they just threw lots of cool stuff away like 60s posters , Bell jars, old weights , tripods, vintage ostrich egg and a taxidermy shark head . All stuff was going to landfill sites how sad that would have been. 1961 poster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hard job... I use regular copper wire for my stands. They come out great, they're sturdy, lightweight, plus you can get different colored wire.

Bobby Rico Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Just for fun I got an vintage shark head taxidermy I was recused out of the trash. I think you will not find a more unusual display stand than this. I do like the look of the Turritella from France been held in the jaw. Just when you thought it was safe to go back into your collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
