Beloved Local Dorset Institution Lyme Regis Museum Raising Funds to Bring Important Mary Anning Letter Home

[excerpt] "The Friends of Lyme Regis Museum are raising money to cover the purchase (including the auction fees) and display of a partial hand-written letter by pioneering palaeontologist
Mary Anning. This letter has come up for auction and will be sold on 26th March 2026.

This letter is exceptionally important due to Mary Anningโ€™s pre-eminent place in British history, and we are desperate to preserve this item in the designated nationally important collection of Lyme Regis Museum, which is sited on her first home and fossil shop.

Mary Anning was a pioneering female at the birth of palaeontology and geology as a scientific discipline. Born in Lyme Regis in 1799 to a poor working-class family she overcame the societal pressures of class and s*x to be a groundbreaking female palaeontologist. Her achievements were celebrated by scientists during her life and by generations of scientists after her death in 1847."

"The reason I distrust the percentage valuation equation stems mostly from the fact that you must clarify what percentage means. Are you referring to the mass of original bone material recovered or the number of bones recovered? This is an important distinction because depending on how you look
