I have a number of large Gaza superba in excellent condition that I bought
for crafts in a shell store in the Florida Panhandle a few years ago. In
fact I made myself a pair of earrings out of two that are 25mm each by
simply gluing a back on. I get compliments every time I were them. To help
strengthen them, I stuffed them with cotton balls and saturated that with
airplane glue. They have held up very well, no matter how I treat them.
I also found an empty small Gaza superba on the beach near where you live,
James.
Listen to the newscasters about the Gulf/Iran skirmish to find out how they
pronounce the Gaza strip.
