I've not been able to get on this site as much as I would have liked to since I joined only a few months ago. I have a few bits that were left to me and I hold very near to me. Nothing here is for sale, but I just wanted to share some pictures of my collection.  Please feel free to correct me, as I've self taught myself what some of these pieces are. My cousin's mother-in-law was one of the 1st amateur female paleontologists in Alberta and she has long passed and her item were given to me.
