    SCARCE VINTAGE ITEM!!!
    This is USGS Bulletin 593,
    The Faunas of the Batesville Sandstone of Northern Arkansas
    . Published in 1915, this is a scarce work, seldom seen or offere
    d on Ebay. This publication consists of the 138-page text which includes eleven plates of photos of fossils bound into the book. This report details the Lower Mississippian fossils of this sandstone formation that is present in parts of Arkansas and Missouri. The fossils include brachiopods, pelecypods, a trilobite, and a few others that are well preserved and probably worthy of collecting. At least one trilobite species is described. The plates of fossils are really detailed and well printed on glossy paper.
    This is a scarce old report, seldom seen or offered. Don't miss this opportunity to get a cool report on this fossil rich formation. With this in hand you will be able to confidently identify your fossil finds. There is also a similar report on the Boone Limestone I sometimes have listed - have a look if you're interested. You can go to my store and enter Boone in the search bar and it will only search my store.
    Expert packing assured. The recent increase in postage rates was pretty big. As a result, Media Mail is now my default shipping method to keep shipping affordable.
