The 600 different species in Mrs, Verda Boyle's collection are only examples of the wonder and majestic beauty of nature's handiwork.  Their exquisite shade of rainbow colors, the marvelously symmetrical patterns that make each one a wonderfully amazing creation.  Shells range in size from the microscopic to the immense horse conch which grows sometimes 20 inches long.

Mrs. Boyle's collection is comprised of specimens from all over the world, but it also includes a good number of seashells from the Texas Golf Coast, from the Louisiana line to the Mexican Border.
