Hi folks!

For the first time, I am offering my Canyon Diablo Crater Display
Kits to the list.

The display kit includes :

1) 6" x 8" Riker box
2) Canyon Diablo metal label from Meteoritelabels.com
3) Canyon Diablo iron meteorite (at least 34 grams)
4) Pulverized crater sand
5) Sandstone rock from the crater rim
6) Canyon Diablo spheroids

This kit represents a complete display of all major materials
associated with Meteor Crater. This is a great display for the
home, office, or observatory. I have sold over one dozen of these
kits since I started offering them. I now have 3 of these kits
available. Asking price is $50, which includes shipping to anywhere
in the CONUS. Overseas or Canadian shipping is $10 extra.

The kit also includes a cardstock information sheet with a photo
of the crater and data about the impactor.

Refer to the photo here -

(scale cube not included)

I also have "multi-media" display kits available!

The multi-media kit comes with everything listed above plus a
digital photo-frame that is powered by a rechargeable battery.
The digital photo frame displays a slideshow of 16 color images
that depicts the crater formation event. It shows the original
impactor approaching Earth, the impactor entering the atmosphere,
the explosive impact, the formation of the crater, iron meteorites,
and more. The digital photo frame has a 1.4" LCD screen and is
recharged via the USB port on your PC. Once charged, the slideshow
will run non-stop for approx. 16 hours. This kit makes a great
education and outreach prop since it shows all of the associated
crater materials and the different stages of the impact event.

Multi-media kits are $75 shipped, and also include the USB cable
and instructions for the digital photo frame. Also, there is
plenty of memory available in the photo frame to load several
dozen of your own images. ($85 shipped to Canada and Overseas)

The Multi-media kit can be seen here :
