Additional information

Part of the Natural History Museum collaboration series, this issue commemorates the Diplodocus carnegii skeleton known as "Dippy," which has been on display at the museum since 1905 — originally a cast gift from American industrialist Andrew Carnegie to King Edward VII. The Natural History Museum loaned Dippy for a UK touring exhibition from 2017 to 2019 before returning the skeleton to the main hall in 2021.
