I'm a fossil dealer, and I acquired a major collection of 200+ OLD Geology books. I know very little about most of these books, so I'm just going to post them here, in related lots, over the next few weeks. Here is a pair of two original echinoderm publications by James Sprinkle - The "Arms" of Cariocrinites, a Rhombiferan Cystoid Convergent on Crinoids; and New Rhombiferan Cystoids from the Middle Ordovician of Nevada. The Nevada one was originally published in 1974, the other one in 1975. Both were a gift from Sprinkle to Martin Anne, who worked with him on the Lepidocystis/Kinzercystis of York County, PA, and the Nevada one was signed by Sprinkle to Martin. LOTS of cool and detailed info about cystoid fossils. This is an extremely collectible set for anyone interested in the echinoderm paleontology of mid 1970's.
