That's "Minyak" and "Mala" on the bottom. "Josky" and "Barbara" on each end and "Sophie Fox" on top.

On my way to Marineland , I can sure recall visiting the RBBB show in Philadelphia and seeing without a doubt ,I believe undisputetly, the most power house elephant display that I had ever witnessed. As I've stated in the past, I wasn't impressed, I was damned impressed ! This will be a highlight in time that I will treasure. Two thumbs up Mr Woodcock and your crew .

what is the oldest photograph you have of elephants doing the Pyramid act?
It dates back to the 1860's I believe.

That's a good question.
Stewart Craven gets credit for training the first pyramid type acts in the late 1860's.
I have early drawings and lithographs but off hand I couldn't say which photograph I have is the earliest.
