Edgar Seeler recorded the information about the identified mushroom specimens and his wife Katherine Seeler painted the watercolors. We are able to count 38 watercolors relating to Nantucket plus 6 black and white as well as 10 watercolors in an envelope. There are 37 researched mushrooms with watercolors without a designated location. Two were collected in Florida in 1943 and another from California.
