After the Crystal Palace display, the second outdoor exhibit of life-sized dinosaurs, was at live-animal collector Carl Hagenbeck’s Tiergarten (zoo) in Stellingen, near Hamberg, Germany. The statues, created by sculptor Joseph Franz Pallenberg in 1909, are still standing today. To view the stereopticon view in three dimensions, “reverse cross” your eyes. The photograph below of Diplodocus is on a postcard; the other photos are from a book in my collection published in 1915.

Book cover illustration based on the Pallenberg statue. Oddly, except for the cover, there is no mention of Iguanodon or any other dinosaur in this volume of Chatterbox.
