FACSIMILE REPRINT - Gustav's Library has worked with the Texas Archeological Society to make this classic volume available once again. As an added bonus, Dee Ann Suhm Story and Edward B. Jelks have written a new introduction to bring this important publication up to date. An important note about the reprint layout of this title: The original publication was a series of 3 hole punched pages that were put into a binder so that it could be updated periodically. As a result of this, the type descriptions were on the front of the page and the accompanying plates were on the reverse. In this 2009 reprint we have moved the plates to face their descriptions which makes it much easier to read. This 8-1/4" x 10-1/2", 317 page, soft cover, facsimile reprint features 148 full page plates of pottery and flint types. - FACSIMILE REPRINT
