Photo of Podokesaurus holyokensis
Talbot’s 1910 discovery of the fossilized bones of a dinosaur – named Podokesaurus holyokensis – brought fame to Mignon and established Mount Holyoke as world class research institution. This 5X7 glass plate photograph was taken the day after the find by Asa Kinney, Associate Professor of Botany and Plant Science. Photo courtesy of ASCMHC.
