A collection of photos of fossils from a small and not especially interesting fossil collection. I can't imagine that many people will much care, but if you need a fossil picture that is not encumbered by intellectual property constraints feel free to use one of these.

Carcharadon

T0136: Shark Tooth: Carcharadon sp
Miocene. Temblor Formation, Barkers Ranch Bone Bed, Collected in 1970s from road cut on China Grade Loop, East of Bakersfield, Kern County, CA. Several miles East of Sharktooth Hill. Note that Carcharadon is very uncommon in the Temblor formation, Barkers Ranch teeth are typically found in float and are usually at least a bit weathered and that this is the only tooth I collected at that road cut. I would not go looking for more teeth like this one. (The blue background grid is .25in ~= 6.6mm)
