Description

This black scrapbook page contains four black and white photographs from George Sternberg's photo album. The top-left photo features a Pliocene exposure on an outcrop above the Belly River Formation. The top-right photo consists of a skull of a Chasmosaurus belli embedded in the rocks with a man sitting next to the skull. The bottom-left photo displays two men working with a Triplex block to lift the Chasmosaurus belli skull. In the bottom-right photo, two outcrops are visible, and a hawk's nest sits at the top of the left outcrop. Underneath each picture on the page, George Sternberg's cursive handwritten inscription describes each photograph.
