PUBLICATIONS OF THE MUSEUM. 



The series of publications of the Field Columbian Museum, 

 of which this is a number, began with "An Historical and Descrip- 

 tive Account of the Field Columbian Museum." The numbers which 

 will succeed in the series will not be restricted in their authorship or 

 subject if coming within the scope of scientific or technical discussion 

 and contributive to the high standard it is hoped the publications 

 will maintain. The publications will include transactions, memoirs, 

 monographs, bulletins, handbooks, and catalogues of collections.

Vol. I, No. I. An Historical and Descriptive Account of the Field 

 Columbian Museum. 



Vol. I, No. 2. The Authentic Letters of Columbus.
