Elephant Headpieces #1 (From Mike Naughton)

We were chatting about the Ringling headpieces recently. Mike sent this picture which, from the crest, I assume comes from either Knie or Krone.

This is definately the traditional Krone headpiece with the Krone crown on the forehead. I may have mentioned before, the studs in the crowns are carriage bolt heads, meticulously cut off, inserted thru holes in the plate, & welded on the back.
