A Sinclair Oil Company promotional dinosaur statue -- a recognized category of oversized fiberglass advertising figures -- stands in front of Imagination Station, a science and history museum at 224 Nash Street SE in Wilson, North Carolina, housed in a 1927 former Federal Courthouse and Post Office building that became a museum in 1992. Surrounding tall bushes give the dinosaur an unusual, half-hidden 'Loch Ness Monster'-like appearance from some angles.
