From Buckles #4

Typed on the back by unknown party:

"Sarasota, February 1951.
Eugene Scott
Girl who is about to be carried by "Mabel".

"I would assume that these last two pictures are connected in
some way with the De Mille Movie.
Maybe regarding the scene when the elephants are carrying
the circus ladies and their luggage to the train.
This, however, looks like a discussion between Arky and
his principal Elephant Empress, Jeanie Sleeter.
I might add that there was no "Mabel" in the '51 herd.

I forgot to mention that the building at right with the open windows is the back of the elephant barn.
The old coach was where the elephant crew flopped.
