Text Appearing Before Image:
Allosaurus feeding on the remains of an amphibious dinosaur.— Restoration of a carnivorous dinosaur from Wyoming representative of the Age of Reptiles. The artist has shown the ferocious reptilian head, with huge mouth bristling with sabre-like teeth, the large birdlike hind limbs, the tail used in balancing and the sharp talons of the feet. Although this conception of the animal has l)een elaborated from detailed anatomical studies, the finished picture has no suggestion of the laboratory but instead the animal seems alive and in a natural habitat
Text Appearing After Image:
Property of the Museum Ornitholestes — Restoration of a small carnivorous dinosaur of the Age of Reptiles, from Wyom- ing. This dinosaur is a biped like Allosaxirus but its proportions are light and graceful as compared with the larger members of the group
