1. A small plaster model reconstruction of Pterodactylus. This was purchased from R Brendel (Berlin) in 1893 for 7s 6d.
    

2. A cast of a specimen of Pterodactylus antiquus. This was purchased from V.Fric (Prague) and is labelled as Pterodactylus longirostris. Don't know the exact date of purchase but probably in the period 1880-1910.
    

3. Hanging in our entrance hall at present is a large papier-mâché pterosaur. It is strictly non-accurate but fun! Complete with large eyelashes! This was made last year by a local artist in conjunction with the showing of the National Museum of Wales touring exhibition 'Tracking Dinosaurs'.
