"Rare shells have an enchantment to which kings and queens, merchants and scholars, poor and rich alike, have all succumbed. Sea shells preserved in the burial caves of Cro-Magnon man and in early Egyptian urns attest to man's primitive desires to own these unique specimens from the seas; and the romance of the most beautiful of nature's treasures continues strongly even today."
