As
usual, Robert Drachuk will have a wide array of fossils
primarily from west of the Mississippi that are too diverse
to list. For many years, Robert supplied fossils to companies
providing educational fossil kits. This year he decided
he could do that better himself. We agree, his fossil
kits are both the best on the market, and far and away
the best values. Teachers should visit his new web site:
.
In
the same space will be fine and unusual fossils from our
frient Steve Lancellotti of Fossilscapes.

Joe Aaronson will be in his usual spot with his usual array
of fine fossils. He travels to Morocco several times a year,
returning with treasures from one of the most fossiliferous
places on earth. Especially look for authentic Moroccan trilobites
instead of the fakery often found from Morocco. We get our from
Joe, because his are real.

western trilobite collectors in the world. George
