Description
This black and white photograph features two men wrapping a fossil inside a quarry on an outcropping. In Charles H. Sternberg's book "Hunting Dinosaurs on Red Deer River, Alberta, Canada, Figure 12.", Mr. Sternberg notes that this exposed skeleton was found by his son, Charles (Charlie) M. Sternberg, near Steveville along the Red Deer River. Charlie M. Sternberg is on the left side wearing a fedora hat with a long-sleeved white shirt and light-colored pants. He is sitting in front of a wrapped portion of the fossil. Jack McGee is on the other side of the specimen and is also dressed in a fedora hat, but he is wearing suspenders and a dark-colored, long-sleeved shirt with his sleeves rolled up. He has a stretched-out piece of burlap in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. The limestone quarry wall with a wooden pole leaning against it is visible behind the two men. In the lower left foreground is a crumpled tarp. Handwriting is below the photograph. This image is in Charles H. Sternberg's book "Hunting Dinosaurs on Red Deer River, Alberta, Canada, Figure 12." The description is on page 55.
