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 Stewart Springer from a fencing master in New Orleans seeks information on the market for shark products. Meykar also included a COD for the publication "Sharks of Florida."	en
