Description

This black and white photograph features an exposed skeleton in a large, textured rock. Near the center of the photograph, the rock cuts off to an area that has been excavated. A large fossil is visible above the area that drops off through the rock. Sternberg describes the fossil as a Carnivore. Beneath the fossil is a small pile of loose bones toward the right side. In Charles H. Sternberg's book "Hunting Dinosaurs on Red Deer River, Alberta, Canada, p51. Figure 11.", Mr. Sternberg notes that this exposed skeleton was found by his son, Charles (Charlie) M. Sternberg, near Steveville along the Red Deer River. Handwriting is below the photograph.
