Re: [Killietalk] Washington Post Aquarium Question

[BizEcology at aol_com]

Hi, Dave,
 
I would like to see a photo and then compare it to some of the  illustrations 
in "The Toy Fish" by Klee and see if I could identify it.
 
If it's in generally good structural condition, the main thing will be  
making sure that it holds together and then sealing it carefully to avoid metal  
contact with water.

Hi. I'm a writer at The Washington Post and  I'm in search of experts on
antique aquariums. I've discovered a  very  interesting aquarium that was a
gift from the Hearst family to a local  elementary school in the 1930s. It's
a stunning work of art in need of  restoration and I'm trying to locate
someone who might be able to tell me a  little about it and how it might be
restored. Any suggestions? Many  thanks.
