Overview of the warehouse collection of coalball peels assembled by Tom Phillips and students. Dr. Phillips, as he was ever known to most of his students, turned his attention almost exclusively to research on Pennsylvanianage plants, anatomically preserved in coalballs, starting in the early 1970s.
