Museum, it is not to be understood that they were without value to the recipients. Except for mere beauty and completeness, they might have been equally valuable as if they had been perfect specimens. It was therefore deemed wise to use these for distribution on the same line as the series of casts. Of these series, the following distributions are shown in the list:-

                                          Specimens.
