The Art of Dr. Seuss Collection

Theodor Seuss Geisel's father was superintendent of parks and as such had access to bills, horns, and antlers of animals that died at Springfield Zoo. With those and other things Geisel during the 1030s created 18 sculptures. Geisel's sister described Ted’s home and its “occupants” on November 28, 1937 for The Springfield Union: “They have a charming apartment on Park Avenue, New York, but it is so filled with his animals that I am apt to have a nightmare whenever I visit them.” The June 7, 1938, issue of Look magazine dubbed Ted Geisel "The World’s Most Eminent Authority on Unheard-Of Animals."  Dr. Seuss’s inimitable Collection of Unorthodox Taxidermy are replicas of these 18 sculptures.
