Photograph, used in the Baltimore Sun, 1960. Shows a view of Bostock’s Zoo.
Bostock’s Zoo, was thought to be located in Baltimore, USA. It was owned by Frank Bostock. This image, although a representation, shows a wealth of wild animals and performers/handlers. Needs more research. There are photographs of it after a fire completely destroyed it during 1901.

Fascinating Early Cenetaph Remembrance Ceremony, London, UK
Cenetaph Remembrance Ceremonies started in the early 1920s and there is extensive research on its origins.
This view, from ‘Flip-Flap’, shows the extent of the exhibition and the reuse of earlier exhibtion buildings. ‘Flip-Flap’ was a cross between a Ferris Wheel and Tower (x2) The name tells its own story, but is not to be confused with a USA ride of the same name.
