The dinosaurs are concrete, and date from 1852. That's 7 years before Darwin published On the Origin of Species, and 55 years before the invention of plastic. So they're a kind of amazing window into the pre-history of paleontology. Really great artefacts, well worth seeing.

Anyhow,hope you eventually got a better girlfriend.
