Hello old collectors,
The last serve did not allow me to send the complete article.
Edgar A. Poe landed in Philadelphia in 1838. He had been raised among the elite of Richmond, Virginia, but in Philadelphia he was an impoverished outsider seeking recognition and stability as a professional writer. Strikingly, Poe’s first publication in Philadelphia—and the one that sold the most in his lifetime—was a shellabration of the humble seashells. The Conchologist’s First Book , published in 1839, was a guide to seashells, an ode to them and their squishy inhabitants that raised conchology “from artificial description to integrative biology.”
Dictation got it wrong I did not mean old collectors I met all collectors. That is a LL collectors. This passage is a part of a complete article from atlas Obscura.
