E. F. D. begs to call the attention of Directors of Museums and Professors of Biology 

 and Geology in Universities to his fine series of 149 Coloured Casts of rare and interesting 

 Fossils. The complete set, except Nos. 28 and 75, will be sent carriage paid for the 

 sum of £180. 



Any Museum acquiring such a grand series of Casts would possess much, not only to 

 interest the Student, but also to attract the general public. 



A town about to establish a Museum would find that these specimens, when properly 

 mounted and displayed in glass cases, with instructive labels to each, would form 

 a substantial basis for a Public Museum at a very small cost. 



Directors or Curators and Protessors of Colleges can obtain by return of post, if 

 desired, a list of the Museums in Great Britain, Australia, Africa, America, Austria, 

 Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Holland, India, Italy, 

 Japan, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Eussia, and Switzerland, where these Casts 

 can be seen which E. F. D. has supplied.
