dc.description.abstract	This item is part of a series of correspondence, business records, and information relating to the manufacture and distribution of shark products. 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. A number of these records refer to dogfish, a term which today can refer to a number of different types of sharks. This letter from Ballard Fish and Oyster Company, Inc. to Charles Springer discusses an order for sharks.	en
