State Museum of Natural History geological chart by James Hall
Series Number
B1594
Summary
This series consists of two almost identical versions of a published geological chart and a small accompanying published key prepared by James Hall entitled ''A chart giving an ideal section of successive geological formations with an actual geological section, from the Atlantic, to the Pacific Ocean." The lower half of the chart depicts geological sections, some hand colored and annotated, illustrating the stratigraphy of specific areas. Elaborate representations of characteristic fossils of each formation are depicted on the top portion.
