Fossils James R. Gregory RARE Geology C1870 Geike's Geology Series
A very RARE original pine cased set of Professor Geikie's natural geological teaching samples. The set was prepared by JAMES R.
GREGORY, of later Gregory Botley and dates from around 1875. The set is complete except for 2 glass vials with powder samples for use with a microscope [These always seemed to get detached from the main samples and end u in the microscope case] Almost all the samples have their original numbers and correspond to the perfect index card in the inner lid.
The samples are of good size and very good definition. The pine case has broken clasps but the case is in very good condition. It is extremely rare to find so many of the original samples from such an early lecture set.This item is in the category "Antiques\Science/Medicine\Scientific Instruments".
