EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the early 20th century, specifically to the year 1913. The image captures a heartwarming moment on the steps of Portsmouth town hall, where two majestic elephants named Jimbo and Jumbo are being warmly greeted by none other than the mayor and alderman J H Gorke. The scene is filled with an air of excitement as men of mixed age range gather around these magnificent creatures. Dressed in their zookeeper uniforms, they exude a sense of pride and dedication towards their beloved animals. It is evident that Jimbo and Jumbo hold a special place in everyone's hearts. This photograph not only showcases the beauty and grandeur of these gentle giants but also sheds light on an important aspect - charity. In close proximity to the elephants stands a collection box, symbolizing an opportunity for people to contribute towards a cause greater than themselves. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how animals have always played significant roles in our society - bringing joy, wonderment, and even inspiring acts of kindness. This particular image encapsulates all those elements flawlessly while leaving us with a profound appreciation for both human-animal connections and historical moments that shaped our past.
