Lonely Planet review for Maxilla & Mandible
'The World's First and Only Osteological Store' has been around since 1983, ideally situated about a block from the Museum of Natural History. Fans of bones, fossils and beetle-studded jewelry will be entranced by the varied goodies on display at this specialty shop. Most people come in to gawk at the dangling skeletons and rows of neatly arranged bones, but few can resist picking up a few novelty items like lucite bracelets filled with brightly colored shield bugs from Thailand. They come in rings and necklaces, too.
