Views of the National Zoological Park in Washington, DC, showing Elephants

• In Memoriam: budderflyman said:

  Another poorly composed and poorly focused photo. Seriously, the Smithsonian must have a better collection of 1920s D.C. photographs. I know you have something like five million photos in your collection.

  Nice

Six Wirths' Circus elephants with their attendants and a Shetland pony crossing the Sydney Harbour Bridge for publicity, 3 April 1932 / Sam Hood

from State Library of New South Wales

• GrenadierGuardsDmr said:

  The Bridge opened 19 March 1932. As the tram is operating and there is a car in the distance (yes that was the density of traffic at most times after the bridge opened), I'd say the photograph date may be incorrect.

• Liz Clark said:

  I can confirm this happened in early April 1932. I'm just finishing the research on this now. Reports say seven elephants but the photos only show the six.
