Elephant Empressi #12

Cole Show "Blanche" with Benson Bros. early 1950's.
Laura Herriott once said that my wife should get credit for getting elephant ladies out of Majorette Boots.

Is this the same Blanche that would unroll Cole's big top canvas during setup?

Yes it is, great elephant but never trained to do much in the ring.
There were 13 elephants when we were on the Cole Show, ten performed in the show while "Blanche", "Trilby" and "Katy" only worked in harness.
