Growth of West Texas Museum Shown by New Specimens
The West Texas Museum reports rapid growth this year with many new specimens added since last month. Highlights include Aztec copper kettles, a large rattlesnake, Indian artifacts, two batallas carved from cottonwood, and a shield donated by Col. R. Cook. The Fort Davis collection adds extensive country data, and donor groups Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Caldwell, and Mr. Reece contributed notable items. The museum, sponsored by the West Texas Historical and Scientific Society, was formed in 1926 with a board of directors and ongoing collecting efforts.
