Bringing buyer and seller together; . W. H. MINER INTRODUCTION Those who have handled pearls, slugs and musselshells, well know how hard it is to write upon the sub-ject of them, so as to assist the beginner in formingsome idea as to the value of his pearls, slugs and shellsand to know the different grades he has. But in thisbook not only the beginner, but the old clammer willfind things of interest. I have tried to make everythingso plain by words and cuts that a person that neversaw a pearl, slug or mussel shell can, by the use ofthis book, be able to tell the dififerent grades of them. You will find in this book illustrations of pearls,slugs, shells and cuts, of the articles used in gatheringthe shells both for the market and for the pearls andslugs.
