Animals - Children with Monkeys. Sharing....Benje plays with his new friend Jemma Heath. Benje the orphan chimp found a new friend when he looked in at BBC-TVs Blue Peter studio. Waiting to extend a welcoming hand was 18-month-old Jemma Heath, daughter of former TV presenter Tina Heath. The pair got on famously well, even to the point of sharing Benjes collection of toys. Four-month-old Benje, whose mother died soon after his birth at London Zoo, is still being bottle fed by keeper Peter Dillingham. May 1982 P000506

17"x15" (43x38cm) Premium Frame
FSC real wood frame with double mounted 10x8 print. Double mounted with white conservation mountboard. Frame moulding comprises stained composite natural wood veneers (Finger Jointed Pine) 39mm wide by 21mm thick. Archival quality Fujifilm CA photo paper mounted onto 1mm card. Overall outside dimensions are 17x15 inches (431x381mm). Rear features Framing tape to cover staples, 50mm Hanger plate, cork bumpers. Glazed with durable thick 2mm Acrylic to provide a virtually unbreakable glass-like finish. Acrylic Glass is far safer, more flexible and much lighter than typical mineral glass. Moreover, its higher translucency makes it a perfect carrier for photo prints. Acrylic allows a little more light to penetrate the surface than conventional glass and absorbs UV rays so that the image and the picture quality doesn't suffer under direct sunlight even after many years. Easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Please note that, to prevent the paper falling through the mount window and to prevent cropping of the original artwork, the visible print may be slightly smaller to allow the paper to be securely attached to the mount without any white edging showing and to match the aspect ratio of the original artwork.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Animals - Children with Monkeys. Sharing. . . . Benje finds a lifelong friend in Jemma Heath. In this heartwarming photo print, we witness the incredible bond between Benje, an orphaned chimp, and 18-month-old Jemma Heath. As fate would have it, their paths crossed at BBC-TVs Blue Peter studio, where little Jemma eagerly awaited Benje's arrival. Despite their differences in species and upbringing, these two kindred spirits connected instantly. With a welcoming smile on her face, Jemma extended her tiny hand to the curious chimp who had captured her heart. From that moment on, they became inseparable companions. Benje's collection of toys quickly became shared treasures as they embarked on countless adventures together. Their laughter echoed through the studio walls as they played and explored side by side. Born into tragedy when his mother passed away shortly after his birth at London Zoo, Benje found solace in the loving care of keeper Peter Dillingham. And now he has discovered a new source of love and friendship in young Jemma. This enchanting photograph captures not only the innocence and joy of childhood but also reminds us of the remarkable connections that can form across different species. It serves as a timeless reminder that true friendship knows no boundaries.
