Pages 176-177 Dad's Military Album Vol. II

These are old slides that have been scanned. Some have mold and/or lines through them. I did spend some time fixing them but not a lot as Anna's Artsy style works well with the distressed nature of these old slides.

One of the original tourist attractions between the Black Hills and Badlands of South Dakota is Dinosaur Park located in Rapid City. It was constructed by the Works Progress Administration. The dinosaurs were designed and sculpted by Emmet Sullivan Today there are a total of seven sculptures. They were constructed from 2-inch black pipe and concrete for the frame. Sullivan then covered them with steel mesh and more concrete.

During our visit in 1957 there were five dinosaurs climbing the hill of the park: a Triceratops, a Stegosaurus, an Apatosaurus (Brontosaurus), a Tyrannosaurus Rex, and an Anatotitan. In 1958 two more dinosaurs were added at the concession stand a Dimetrodon and a Protoceratops.

In 1990 the park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of Interior.

This is fascinating, I've never heard of it! Built by the WPA! What a treasury of photos to have, especially from that era. I like the inclusion of the slide frame!
 
I know what you mean about the old slides! That's all we took in the early years of our marriage. Love the huge dinosaurs and little you!
