A few more things we found at the Fossil Shows:
These fossil fish from Wyoming are well-priced, because for the most part they were purchased years ago, before the price of fish went up. We could probably sell them for more, but hey - we like a bargain and expect that you do, too.
Ron used to say that mostly middle-aged men collected trilobites - but we say you're never too young or too old to appreciate a well-prepped ancient sea bug. These are from Morocco, as so many fossils are...please note we also have Flexicalamenes, which are a good starter trilobite, also from Morocco.
We found some rare green Libyan glass, and had to get a couple of chunks, though we don't know how many jewelry makers we know who work with the raw stuff...note that we also have small pieces of the more normal yellow Libyan glass, good for collectors.
TRex-like teeth from the Cretaceous Moroccan carnosaur.
And don't forget, there's more at Bone Room Texas:

Carved Modern Walrus Teeth. Much like the carved Orca teeth that were featured earlier, modern walrus are a protected species. When made into art by a federally recognized Native American these pieces become a legitimate piece to be added to ones collection. Each piece has been signed by the artist Sam Dimmck.
If you are interested in an uncarved form we also have our Fossilized Walrus Teeth.

Ron Cauble, founder of The Bone Room, was obsessed with inclusions in amber. At Fossil and Mineral Shows he would typically be found seated at an amber dealer's booth, a great pile of amber pieces before him, peering through a loupe at the world inside each piece.
Over the years, some of the pieces were sold to collectors and scientists (most notably, to George Poinar, recognized amber expert and author) - but Ron was always a better collector than salesman, and his collection grew to museum backroom proportions.
Finally we are getting a good start on cataloging and photographing his enormous collection of amber and copal, and offering this work of love and obsession to the public. We think Ron would approve.
