Obtaining ‘tar pit’ fossils is nearly impossible today, unless from an old collection or from private property.
George Lee, a prominent fossil collector collected and kept quite a bit of this material in his warehouse for decades. It wasn’t until his estate was liquidated in the early 2000’s that it saw the light of day again.
