GENUINE DINOSAUR EGG

Until the early 1900s scientists could only theorise that dinosaurs were hatched from eggs since not even a single example had ever been found. When a nest with a clutch of fossilised eggs was finally discovered in the Gobi desert of Mongolia, it was hailed as one of the most important finds in the history of palaeontology.
Dinosaur eggs were never huge in proportion to their parents as the shell would have been far too thick to hatch.

These eggs probably come from the Therzinosaur,
a dinosaur related to the T-Rex and date from the Cretaceous period.
75-86 Million years old


Very good example showing half shell and half exposed

TAXIDERMY PLAQUE

 

Intended as a "joke" item these pressed brass plaques
have now become an integral put of taxidermy history.

Stating Lacopus Scoticus (Red Grouse) was stuffed by Ivor Poake Ltd for the Great Exhibition 1851 kind of gives the game away.

While their origin cannot be confirmed, I am reliablly informed the taxidermists past from Rowland Ward's may have been able to shed some light on the matter.
