Description
Excerpt from the Proceedings of the United States National Museum, Vol. 61, Art. 4, pages 1-4 (with Plates 1-2) written by Head Curator George P. Merrill in 1922. Discusses the Iron meteors from Alpine, Texas (1915), Signal Mountain, Lower California (1919), and the Pallasite from Cold Bay, Alaska (1921). Features descriptions of all three, and chemical analysis of the first two-the condition of the third rendering such tests of doubtful use.
