dc.description.abstract	This item is part of a series of correspondence and business records relating to the distribution of shark products, especially jewelry made from sharks teeth. For a few years beginning in 1938, most of the shark products distributed from the supply company were produced under the name Genuine Shark Products. This letter to the Bass Biological Laboratory is an inquiry on the process of making shark skins and how to get into the business of producing and selling shark hide.	en
