For those with some extra cash, a pair of Jonas studios T.rex and stegosaurus can be yours for only $15,000.

The vintage stegosaurus looks interesting.  But is it worth $7,500?  Not sure about that.

I remember seeing Jonas's sculptures (along with the Deaton brothers' painted bronzes, most of which I eventually bought (and mostly sold decades later (But if you don't know them, Google Image them.))), in the Collector's Cabinet in New York back in the 70's. I collected minerals, fossils, seashells (before I realized what doing the latter meant), etc., and family members took me there to buy me birthday gifts. I'd no idea about the sculptures until I entered the store and my mind went bonkers upon seeing them all.

I wonder if I'd be here doing this now had I not gone there...
