AfterperusingseveralboxesfullofEFMLShistoricaldocumentsIfinallydecidedpickonenearthefrontoftheboxsothatIcouldeasilyfindits’placewhenIwastoreturnit.Ihan-dled it with care because thepaper felt fragile. The title ofthisdocument is“EasternFed-erationNewsletter”May1966.It appears to have been typed
ormaybe theyusedanearlywordprocessor - I’mnotquitesure.Itcontainedseveralarticles.
The bulletin started with, “Executive CommitteeMeetingApril,231966”andendedwithHELP,”HelpEliminateLitterPlease”.Itwasn’taverylengthybul-letin,butitsurehadalotofsubstance.IreadabouttheAFMSConvention in Las Vegas,Nevada. In thatarticle theauthor (I don’t knowwho itwasbecausenoneof thearticlesmentionedanauthorand Ipre-sumeitwastheclub’srecordingsecretaryorperhapsthebulletin’seditor.)described, ”Onewas immedi-ately impressed with the feeling that each memberof theCommitteegavegreatweight to theeffectofproposedchangesonclubsandclubexhibitors,ratherthantotheirownpersonalfeeling.”
My thought during the readingwas that the au-thorhimselfwasveryattentivetothepassionofworkthatwentintothemeetinghewasdescribing.Attheclosingof thearticle theauthormentioned that theSmithsonian displayed approximately thirty speci-mensfromtheirnewly(1966)acquiredBoschCollec-tion.ThecollectionwascollectedbyCarlBoschpriorto the 1900’s. Many of the specimens representedmining areas thatwere no longer in existence. Theauthorendedthearticlewiththefactthatallthela-belsandnotationswereinGermanandmanyofthemwereinMr.Bosch’sownhandwriting.
Sothis iswhere Idecidedtohoponmycomput-er and find outmore about this collector. I foundan interesting article in, “TheMineralogical Record,Biographical Archive”. I e-mailed Wendell Wilson,Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of The Mineralogical Recordandhegavemepermissiontoquoteorpara-phrasethebiography.
EFMLS HistorybyMaryCiervo
“CarlBosch(1874-1940) Dr. Carl Bosch was born in Cologne, GermanyonAugust 27, 1874, the eldest sonof a southGer-manengineer.Hedidwell inscienceatschool,andbefore going to college spent a year working as ametal fabricator. He then studied chemistry underJ.A.WislicenusatLeipzigUniversity,wherehetookhisdoctoratein1898.HethentookajobwithBadis-che Anilin-und-Soda-Fabrik (BASF), a large Germanchemical company making dyestuffs. In 1908 FritzHaber told BASF of his ammonia synthesis process,andBoschwasassignedthetaskofdevelopingitonanindustrialscale.Bytheendof1913hehadcom-pleted the monumental job, the largest single un-dertakinginthehistoryofchemicalengineering.Hewas awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1931forhisworkonhigh-pressuresynthesis.”
How does this relate to the EFMLS? The biographyexplained that Dr. Bosch’s collection had been hisconsuming passion. Age he became more success-fulhiswealthallowedhimtoincreasehiscollection.Heeventuallyacquired theGustavSeligmann (1849-1920)collection.Offurtherinterestofanavidcollec-torhehadahugeinsectcollection,asmallfossilcol-lection and a significant scientific library. Dr. BoschdiedonApril26,1940.Itwasbecauseofhisson,Dr.CarlBosch,Jr.,whoprotectedthecollectionsthrough-outWWIIthatin1947hewasabletotransportthemtotheUnitedStateswheretheywerestoredinBrook-lyn New York. The mineral collection was sent toYaleona15yearloan.In1966theSmithsonianpur-chased it for $250,000. The biography ended with, “It was subsequently found that Bosch had record-ed his purchase price in code on the back of hishandwritten labels --the code was deciphered andproved to be the letters of the mineral name am-blygonit representing the digits 1 through 9 and 0.” ThisishowthishistoricalbiographyrelatestotheEFMLS. We hadmembers at that AFMS conventionwhohadfirst-handexperiencewhentheSmithsonianpurchased the Bosch collection in 1966. I wonderif themembers at that time realized howprivilegedtheywere?
