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 the stereopticon view of the Diplodocus statue is on a postcard; the other photos are from Geology of To-Day, a book in my collection published in 1915.

Geologist Arthur Lakes’ watercolor painting (below, left) based upon Hagenbeck’s Triceratops family statues; book cover illustration (below, right) based on the Pallenberg Iguanodon statue. Oddly, except for the cover, there is no mention of Iguanodon or any other dinosaur in this volume of Chatterbox.
