Re: [Fwd: Stolen dinosaur head]



With full appreciation of the humor, the original "wrong-headed" bronto
wzs in the AMNH. The head was finally switched (see the Gertie the
Dinosaur article at DIG). 

It's possible that the Sinclair dinosaur (which I've never seen) copied
that wrong version, but probably it did, in fact, have the corret head.
