Butterflies Worth Money From Collector Rarities To Monarchs
A playful survey notes butterflies may hold commercial value as collectors pay one to several dollars for domesti cata and rare morpho and papilio species. It cites rainbow hued wings with wingspans up to five feet, often sought by museums for expeditions, with values from ten to one hundred dollars. The piece also wanders through miscellaneous trivia on haddock finger marks, a devil’s bridge tale, conceit as a driver of progress, a medical pun exchange, a joke about a reform school inmate, and a rental ad for rooms.
