I understand that these are museum pieces and they don't pay as much attention to them as other items in the building, but could they at least turn the bloody shells over so we don't get distracted by the inventory number? Just sayin.
Yes, that is unfortunate the accession numbers obscure the fossil detail.
I think they glued some of the fossils to the display cards.
Maybe the way to do it is post the accession number next to the fossil on the card then show the side of the fossil not written on.
