Note: This historical image is not a factually accurate dinosaur restoration.

Reason: Skull shape is wrong, Tyrannosaurus had two fingers (not three as pictured), tail was held level with body in real life.

You may ask further questions about the accuracy of this image at the image review page of WikiProject Dinosaurs on the English Wikipedia. Note that this image may be appropriate to illustrate obsolete paleontological views.
