Dear Listees:

Greetings all. I am delighted to offer a fine assortment of historic  
pieces from the Oscar Monnig Collection. We have individuals, slices  
and part slices from six classic Texas chondrites:  Davy (a), Davy  
(b), Dimmitt, Round Top (b), Tulia (a) and Tulia (d).

All specimens come with original Monnig Collection labels and the  
Dimmitt and Tulia individuals carry hand painted Monnig Collection  
numbers (as cataloged by Glenn Huss) AND a second set of numbers which  
were Oscar's personal code noting where the specimen was found.

Catalog" for any purchase of $200 or more. Order today and pay with  
PayPal before midnight Pacific and take 10% off your order too.

cosmic wonders:

Of special note:

A 10.02 kilo Sikhote-Alin shrapnel specimen, shield shaped and covered  
with fascinating surface features. This very large piece defies  
gravity and stands up naturally on its edge, making for a dynamite  
display piece. Look at the photos and you'll see what I mean. Really,  
we did not prop it up!:

Also, an intriguing large Sikhote-Alin individual, 2,971 grams, with  
good regmaglypts and amazing pointing "fingers":

And finally for today, we are down to our last small handful of the  
limited edition "Meteorite Men" Brenham collectibles in lucite. Only  
100 of this special edition were made by Steve #1 and myself, and they  
come with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity and a signed color  
photo of the excavation of the complete mass. Details:

We have less than ten left, so let me know pronto if you want one.

As always, we ship anywhere in the known universe and happily accept  
PayPal, checks, money orders, and major credit cards. Layaways  
available. Reasonable offers always considered.


Thanks for looking and all the best from the Wild West,
