History
G. A. Frank was a Dutch dealer based in Amsterdam who sold natural history specimens to museums and collectors from the mid- to late 19th century. He worked with major institutions such as the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie and the Zoological Museum Amsterdam. Instead of collecting animals himself, he purchased them from other collectors.
