Mexico City Zoo follow up #2


Scan13248, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

This is the herd that was left behind in Sarasota in 1957 when the
show moved indoors.
#9, #10, #11 and #12 are the elephants in the Mexico City picture above.
#4 "Judy" was added just to get rid of her.
Does anyone remember Charlie Brown a candy butcher/bull hand?
He got chosen to deliver them by baggage car and was promptly
jailed after the fatal runaway. Maybe he's still down there.

Buckles -

I don't know if it's the SAME Charlie Brown, but I remember him from the 70's first with a floss joint, then for a number of years as having the sno-cones, then as lead pitchman on the programs. If it's the same guy, he married a fellow 'constashioneer' and they were very happy together. ~frank
