Michael Kelly:
My recommendation is you start up a catalog now keep track of important info on your collection when you bought it total weight total cost, details of why it interested you etc. if you keep at it it’s hard to “catch up” on details later. The little nuances you might forget in a piece in 3 decades or 400 pieces later

Please categorize any and all new specimens collections – keep records, I am truly sorry I didn’t when I was purchasing prior 10-12 years ago. Now I just have a mess of things I am now trying to rectify
