NOTICE 



Bigelow and Schroeder's "Fishes of the Gulf of Maine" was printed in 

 1953 and went on sale at the U.S. Government Printing Office on February 12, 

 1954. This was a revision of an earlier work of the same name by Bigelow and 

 W. W. Welsh (1925); 3,493 copies of the revision were printed. Of these, 

 2,000 copies were distributed by the Fish and Wildlife Service, the remainder 

 by the Government Printing Office. The Service supply was exhausted in Janu- 

 ary 1961 and that of the Printing Office in March 1961. 



A photo-offset reprinting was issued in 1964 jointly by the Woods Hole 

 Oceanographic Institution and the Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard 

 University, organizations with which the authors have been associated for many 

 years. Since then, additional reprintings have followed. The contents of the book 

 are precisely the same as published in 1953 save for the addition of this note 

 and the deletion of two lines at the foot of the title page saying "For sale by the 

 Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington 25, 

 D.C. Price $4.25 (Buckram)." 



This reprint may be obtained from the Museum of Comparative Zoology, 

 Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138.
