SILVER PINS for collectors of Micro-Lepidoptera, etc., as well as minute insects of 

 all other families. 



We stock various sizes and lengths of these Silver Pins which have certain advantages 

 over the entomological pins (whether enamelled black or silver or gilt). 



For instance, insects liable to become greasy and to verdigris like Sesiidae, etc., are 

 best pinned on Silver Pins which will last much longer than ordinary pins. 



We shall be pleased to send pattern cards on apolication.

SOMETHING NEW AND CHEAP. 



By special request of many of my clients, I have issued a small leaflet entitled, 

 "Valuable Hints to Collectors." This little work will be found most useful to 

 the advanced collector as well as the beginner and one of the hints alone is worih more 

 than the cost of the work. Amongst other matters it deals with treatment of Ova, Larvte 

 and Pupas in captivity, cleaning insects for grease, killing and setting, and gives some 

 very useful substitute foodplants. Price 9cl. only, post free. 



Write for latest price lists of Ova, Larva, Pupae, and Set Insects, the smallest order 

 thankfully received. Don't forget I can supply all apparatus at usual prices. 



Remember my Relaxing Tins and Text-book.
