Dinosaur Park, Rapid City, SD

I love dinosaurs, dogs, and NOW South Dakota!

This card was sent in 1944!

The back of the card tells-

Dinosaur Park, located on the hills overlooking Rapid City, contains five full size reproductions of prehistoric animals who lived millions of years ago in what is now the Black Hills of South Dakota.  Constructed of cement, they are as nearly as possible, faithful reproductions as to form and size, and comprise a unique display, the only one of its kind in the United States.  The picture shows Tyrannosaurus Rex, 35 feet in length, 16 feet high, and Triceratops, 27 feet in length and 11 feet high.  The dog and the Tyrannosaurus Rex give a comparison as to size.
