An important collection of Heads collected by F H Barber in the USA. This collection was obtained for the New York Zoological Society (image 1910) The work of Rowland Ward was well represented in this collection and was a friend of Barber The collection, suffered theft, some disposed to landfill, various changes of ownership but a large portion is still retained in the Safari Club International. State parks have been named after him in British Columbia for his work in conservation. Hunting is a poorly understood aspect of conservation, which for it not for the game reserves in Afrcia, it is doubtful that large game would have survived today.
