I first saw this collection in the mid-1990s, shortly after the opening of the museum's Cockrell Butterfly Center, at which time they had a gallery dedicated to displaying many of the specimens.

Re: Houston Museum of Natural Science article
I've visited this museum many times in the past, but not recently. Farrar Stockton & Nancy Grieg are friends of mine. Farrar has a very nice private butterfly collection, as well as a very impressive mineral collection. This article will motivate me to get back down to the museum.
