Old #herbarium sheets come with perks and challenges. I love to figure out what is written. For this particularly hard example, I got lucky because the collection was cited with the old species name in an old paper. It's "An der Lesum bei #Vegesack" in #Bremen, Germany. Could you have deciphered it?
The label is written in German #Kurrentschrift, an old style of handwriting. The long s in "Lesum" and the V and the k in Vegesack are unusual, and the first e rather looks like an "a". But there is no alternative at the Lesum river. Johann Otto Boeckeler is known to have collected in NW Germany.
