Publications Relating to the Exhibits or to the 

 Work of the Museum 



These are plainly written accounts of the exhibits or of the sul ijects illustrated by 

 the exhibits and are intended to give much more information than could be put on 

 labels. These publications are issued at or below cost, hence the prices are net; 

 postage is extra, and there are no discounts either to dealers or when the leaflets are 

 purchased in quantities. They may be purchased of the Attendants or from the 

 Librarian. A partial list is given below.
