given a C1900 collectors cabinet full of shells
Hi all .. New to this but i have been left a collectors cabinet full of shells fossils and Neolithic worked flint .. i have taken the pictures before i look through it and tidy it up

the collection dates from 1880 to 1930 and i was wondering if there is anything i should watch out for like endangered species or rare types ect


also two pictures of REAL flying fish from 1928 /29 with where they were caught (will look them up later) ..

I was also given two books one dated 1909 and one from 1840 (is that a early one ?)
