Hi, All!

For those of you who are curious as to what I was talking about.  There are eleven green tree snails for sale on eBay, by a motorcycle parts dealer.  BUT...the most interesting fact is that they are accompanied by a hand written letter from Tucker Abbott, dated 1966.  He apparently sent them to a collector, as they were museum surplus.  I would almost rather have the letter, without the shells.  Obviously, the seller is not aware of the law regarding the selling of Papustyla pulcherrima.

Cheers,
Linda
