Featured Unusual Fossil Theme Stereoview

Got an interesting 1880-90's Stereoview that appears to be showing parts of a fossilized animal. One end looks like a crocodile, not sure what's going on with the other end. The way they have it laid out is odd. Sadly no markings as to maker or location.

Doubt i'll be able to find out much about it, but I was looking at famous fossil hunters of the time and the seated man kinda looks similar to Edward Drinker Cope. Not really enough detail to make a real guess though.

 

The fossil looks like a Plesiosaurus .

 

Could very well be. Looks like the heads on the right end. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Drinker_Cope#Bone_Wars

 

You have very interesting stereos and other photos, Kronos. I always enjoy reading your discussions here.

 

Very ODD looking (the skeleton!) at best!!! I wouldn't have wanted to run into EITHER end!!!!

 

It's an Ikea kit and he's reading the instructions. (Part D12f is missing.)

 

Could be an ichtyosaurus. I think parts are missing - ribs for instance.

 

I had someone message me on ebay about the card, as they had a similar one with a written title on back, identifying it as a Pleisosaurus also.

 

That's the Farphlekonkinpatselflaoorn kit.
I'd know it anywhere.

 

Neither of those earn 'us' at the end.

 

Only you in over 5 days Bev.
Thanks!
