Hello Jason, Count, Werner + Sandra, and List, Attached Jason, Count, Werner + Sandra will find a color version of the postcard I sent Jeff Kuyken some years ago. Another picture that I took several years ago shows some excellent detail of the "spongelike structure" that Jason mentions in his post to the MetList. This is a close-up of the 252 kg slab that resides at the MPI Heidelberg.
The black & white photo shows Siegfried Haag of the MPI Heidelberg while cutting the first slab of the 6.1-ton Mundrabilla II mass, which took him 188 hours! He cut not only one but four ca. 250 kg slabs, which were then distributed as follows: => Smithsonian Institute (Washington, D.C.) => Soviet Academy of Sciences (Moscow) => British Museum (London) => Adelaide Museum (Australia) Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year to all our Listees, Listoids, and Listers!!!
