    Genuine fossils - 100s of millions of years in the making. Mostly Brachiopods (not sure what the thing at the top is). Collected them myself back in the early '60s near Rockwood, Ontario (as I recall). The larger shells are about 1-1/2" long. Free shipping.

    I'll wait until Wednesday to see what's what.

    I was wondering if I was on the block too. I'm like a printer or old car - low acquisition cost, but the ink/upkeep is brutal! They're cool, but I'll let someone else have them.

    It very well could be. That was my guess, but it lacks clear definition.

    Please put my name in. It would be a Christmas present for "someone" who would be quite surprised. He's been "digging up" things since early childhood, but he has only a few of these and they were off one rock and are only the "lower halves." ;)

    That was my guess too. These remind me of ones picked up in childhood along the Detroit River, across from Ontario, so please add me to the drawing.

    are in the hat.

    I've been dithering. I have 4 of these packets, so I've decided to select 4 names. Not too late to get involved! I'll make the cutoff tomorrow night, 10:00 pm Eastern time. Then I'll use some online thingy to pick the names.

    So it will be Thursday or Friday before I can say who won. (can't do that sort of thing on my home computer)

    I'm posting pictures here of the other 3 lots. Of the 4 people whose names are selected, 1st choice will go to whoever put their name in first (before the cutoff time), and second choice to the second person, etc.

    I think the packages are all much of a muchness.
