Notes
:
Historic old label. Unsure who it belonged to. Label has a couple dates on it such as “coll 1982” and possibly purchased at “Tucson show 2/5/88.” Reverse side I think is saying that it might be pictured in a Mineralogical Record, volume 14, No. 1, page 56, 1983. The $40 on the label is what I paid for it so I’m unsure if that was originally written on it or if the vendor wrote it on. Purchased from Mammoth Rock Shop in AJ AZ.
