North American Seashells Educational Poster 36x24

This poster is 36" x 24" and makes the perfect addition to a classroom, study, and student or children's bedrooms.

This is by far the most comprehensive poster about seashells ever published. Magnificent illustrations accurately portray 140 specimens, all accompanied by captions citing common name, biological name, where they are found, and size. Representatives from all major biological groups are included. Special care was taken to show the seashells most often found on North American beaches and those widely available in souvenir shops and nature stores. Often the only difference between species is the color and design pattern. Thus this poster is also very helpful in identifying the type of shell - such as a pectin, cone, or whelk - even if it is found in other parts of the world. This is a truly beautiful poster that makes a handsome addition to any decor. It also provides an easy way for the novice collector to quickly identify the results of beachcombing.
