Dear All,

I am posting this on behalf of the organising committee of the 4th National
Shell Show:

The Malacological Society of Australasia (Queensland Branch) is pleased to
announce that the 4th Australian National Shell Show will be hosted in
Brisbane,
Australia on 23-24 March 2002. The show will cater for all levels of
collectors
of most classes of Molluscs, and trading tables for dealers will be
available at
the venue.

Entry forms, show rules, and other information will be available in late 2001.
To register your interest and be included on the mailing list, please

The Australian National Shell Shows are becoming an internationally
recognised event. Held every second year, the show is hosted by a different
club each time. The third national shell show, which was held this past
March in Adelaide, attracted quite a good shelling crowd, and shell dealers
from all continents attended.

Brisbane has a very active shell club, and this coming shell show promises
to be a great event. So why not plan your Australian holiday now and visit
the show? March is a pretty good month for travelling in either southern
Australia or northern Australia.

I hope to see you all at the show!

Patty
