90 As an expedient and to minimize the necessary handling and preparation time; each bone, as practical, is wrapped, nested in paper excelsior, and boxed for transportation from the field to the laboratory. More fragile bones, regardless of size, require the conventional plaster and burlap packaging.1961-06Image

96 Here is a scientific illustration of the skull of Camarasaurs lentus. Superior illustrations often are the most important part of a paper presenting a scientific description of a fossil bone, because they allow interpretation, not always possible, even with the best photographs. (March 1994)1994-03Image
97 If the young prospectors were lucky and raised their hands when asked about their success, we would have them "donate" their significant finds to the collection. They were allowed to keep fragments of no scientific value. (June 1961)1961-06Image

100 Notice the banded structure of this thin slice of fossilized bone. Studies are being made to determine the significance of the individual layers; which, if representing annulations or yearly growth rings, as seen in trees, might permit paleontologists to ascertain the age of an individual dinosaur.
