From Dave Price #1

Buckles6, originally uploaded by bucklesw1. Buckles: I also wondered if the Young Snyder pic was made in Peru (which would make sense). In looking over the attached aerial view of the Peru quarters for the structure behind the men and elephants, I only find one possible building. Unfortunately it is very dark in the pic and so I have pranked with it to bring out some of the characteristics. I am not saying this IS the building in your photo, just that it has some similarities. From left to right in my pic we see what could be (1) the lower window over the large elephant's head, (2) the higher window to the right and (3) the pole next to the bell. Of course this does not account for the left part of the building shown in your pic; possibly that was a later addition from after the aerial view was made. This building is identified in a chart of the WQ as being a paint shop on the first floor and the "club rooms, hospital and barber shop" on the second. "Club rooms" might be another name for cookhouse, just as "hotel" sometimes was, and that would account for the bell. And no, thank you, it is not necessary to mention that only a very dotty old man would engage in this exercise. Obviously I have nothing better to occupy my Saturday mornings.
