Nsr Fish Verts

Recommended Posts

The larger verts in the rear are from Xiphactinus audax, a tarpoon like fish, the rest are unknown. If anyone can ID any of the others it would be appreciated. The six verts, top right , on top of the Audax verts, are associated but broke apart during liberation from the Taylor Shale Formation. The bottle was the find of the day, manufactured by the Crystal Bottling Works in Paris, Texas and being from Paris it was a special find, part of history long lost. The Nsr doesn't treat marbles and glass well, they get pretty beat up from being tumbled through the gravel, still was happy to find it. Did a little research and found the company was in business from around 1890's to 1910 ish.--Tom
