European Elephants #1 (Photos and comments from Filipe Von Gilsa)


"Kalli Frank cleaning off "Sahib" prior to his performance with Circus Knie in 1964."

I received this very interesting material from Mr. Von Gilsa via Deutsche Post.

Isn't this act included in the movie "Rings around the World", hosted by Don Amechee? I know I have it on video somewhere.

The person looks like a "TARZAN". Beautyful huge elephant. Looks like they use a lot of male elephants in the ring. Tusk intact. Are their elephants bigger then in America?
