| Early pleistocene deposits in Gansu province. The skull measures 16" long x 7.5" tall (A very large and rare specimen). There is NO compositing or restoration. There is minor repair to breaks in the zygomatic arches and the back of each mandible. All teeth and sabers are original. One upper incisor has repair to a broken tip. The tip of one saber is broken at an angle, but this was the way it was in the matrix. This was not change it as it seemed an interesting pathological oddity which may have occured as the animal died. The sabers measure 4.5" long (in a straight line, not along the curve) x 1.5" wide. There is moderate lateral compression of the entire skull, but it displays well from either side. This item cannot be shipped.
