In 1958 the Museum purchased from Captain A. W. F. Fuller his great collection of 6,500 ethnographic specimens from Oceania. This major acquisition was enthusiastically supported by Stanley Field. After Captain Fuller's death in 1961, Mrs. Fuller gave the Museum her husband's very important collection from Benin in Nigeria. This gift, combined with previous holdings, made Field Museum's collection of Benin materials next in importance to those in the British Museum and the Museum fijr Volkerkunde in Berlin. Between 1941 and 1964 under Paul Martin's leadership, the Department of Anthropology completely reinstalled six American Indian halls and the halls devoted to Ancient Mesopotamia, Roman archaeology, Polynesia (incorporating the most important Fuller specimens), and Ch'ing Dynasty China; and a new hall of primitive art was created. This was the period of the gifted dioramist Alfred Lee Powell, the Chicago painter Gustaf Dalstrom, and preparator Walter Reese. Together they formed a congenial and creative team which set the style of new anthropology exhibits
