Philadelphia Shell Club

To all our friends in the Shell World: The Philadelphia Shell Club will not hold its annual show in 2019. There are a number of reasons for this decision, but it is something for which the time has come. We have had a fantastic run over 38 years and perhaps if the club can recover more of its former vitality we can do this again. It is certainly something worth remembering at COA this year when we celebrate club founder R. Tucker Abbott’s 100th birthday.... Please feel free to share this message with all and by any means possible Sincerely, Tom Grace President, Philadelphia Shell Club

Did you know? The Philly Shell Club puts out a newsletter each month to its members. Nowadays it's electronic, but prior to that members used to receive a slip in the mail with details on the next meeting. The newsletter was first called Pandora Box, and later changed to Xenophora - not to be confused with the French publication Xenophora which is the quarterly magazine of the French Conchologist Association.
