Hi,

I believe Sergey's label website is similar, if not based on, the Mineralogical Record's Label Archive which has been around for years. It does not address meteorite labels separately, but then again it has entries for Charles Upham Shepard and Krantz. For example it has several labels that Charles Upham Shepard used over the years, mainly for minerals, but possibly for meteorites as well.

If you want to see the website go to:

http://www.minrec.org/labelarchive.asp

If you go to the top of the page, there is a drop down box where you can choose a mineral collector and pull up the biography and specimens of sample labels.

If you go to the bottom of the page, there is a link which will take you to an introduction to collecting mineral labels, and another link which will take you to a list of label donors and sources.

So I would recommend that collectors interested in the history and collection of labels take a look at both Sergey's website as well as the Mineralogical Record website.

Hi all,

In my opinion Sergey's label website is becoming the "one stop shop" for meteorite labelling info. I highly recommend taking a look if you have not seen it before.

Cheers,

Jeff

I have an Excel spread sheet with my collection data, i.e. Name, purchased from, type, class, weight, etc. Then I put a little tag on the display with mostly the same stuff.
I have pictures if interested.

I put mine on my computer alphabetically.

Name, place.
Type.
Date of find or fall
(line space)
Numerical number and alphabetical number example. First meteorite I
got is Abee so it is 001 numerically
Abee would be 0101-1 alphabetically
Second Abee would be 001A  0101-2
Thin section is 001TS  0101TS
Then on same line is description and weight of specimen in grams or mg.

Then Source is next line.
Then new line is cost in US$ and date item acquired on same line:
(line space)

Notes: (additional notes on specimen with references etc.) These can
run several paragraphs.

Hope this helps.
