I was checking Pilsbry's book to scan some pages to post here, and a small label dropped from the
book:

I checked on Internet and these guys still in the market! Of course they changed from selling shells
to something else

http://www.wardsci.com/default.asp

I wonder if any shell shops selling today will be active after more than 100 years....

By the way, who is the (hum... how can I say it without being offensive?) most "ancient" dealer
still active nowadays? When we started selling shells back in 1989 our friends in Florida used to
call us "The Boys from Brazil", some still do and I appreciate that!
