Test Picture #2 (From Jim Cole)


Buckles, can you ID these elephants, is that Tommy?


"No idea, but "Tommy" never required a martingale like that, the stuff he wore was purely ornamental.
Buckles

I might add that  after Shannon readjusted this machine he and family departed for Disney World where Bright House has bought out several hours for employees and their families.
I declined having undergone enough trauma for one day.

Oh yea. I can just see you at Disney. By the way, I appreciate seeing Ben and the family posted a few days ago. It was a wonderful birthday gift for me. Not a day goes by that I don't think of him. I wish we could go back in time. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Buckles, I am certainly not the expert that you are but I believe this is Hagenbeck-Wallace's Tommy with the Hardware.

The Scaperlanda photo of him taken in 1933 shows the ends of his ivory broke off right in front of the hardware.

I would then assume that the elephant on the left is Charley ED as Prince was a smaller male.

Just my 2 cents worth.
