Selections from The Obodda Collection
March 19, 2017 - We are so proud to have obtained the large collection of Herb Obodda, lifelong dealer and friend. His collection of several thousand specimens contains large suites from his two favorite collecting interests: antique European classics; and minerals of Afghanistan and Pakistan, where he was the first dealer to export specimens to the West. We took a break since 2014 on posting new pieces from his collection, but due to an increase in inquiries on his pieces, we've prepared another set of fine minerals from this historic and famous collection. For more on Herb, please see the Mineralogical Record site: http://www.minrec.org/labels.asp?colid=1182
