The show only had 19 elephants in 1952 and Mr. North decided to build it up adding seven in 1953 and twenty four more in 1955 for a total of 52. Very impressive but failed to overshadow the he herds of the early 1940's that carried 48 full grown elephants.
I believe this is NYC and the march to the Garden. I'd say 1955. If so there should be 51 elephants. The 52nd, the small African male Diamond, was added later in Detroit as I recall.
