To my surprise I found a Polish stamp containing a dinosaur, the styracosaurus, that I had not heard of before.

| Poland - 5 March 1965 |
It stood 1.8 metres tall and was over 5 metres long.
I have used stamps commemorating Sir Richard Owen's classification of dinosaurs before - fortunately in A-Z themed posts. That means I can post another today.

I hadn't heard of the styracosaurus before. Good choice!
I like how the Owen stamp gives a sense of scale. The number of different species still being discovered today is fascinating.
This styracosaurus looks a little cartoonish, but I am sure he was a fierce beast!
I like those Owen's dinosaurs with the little man being followed by the big dino.
