EDITORS COMMENTS
In this hilarious snapshot from the past, we witness a truly unexpected sight at the London Zoo. Peter, the mischievous chimpanzee, takes on an unusual role as he gives his keeper, Harry Brown, a close shave! It seems that after observing his caretaker's daily grooming routine in the Monkey House, Peter couldn't resist trying his hand at being a barber himself. The photo captures the comical moment when Peter confidently squirts powder onto Keeper Brown to complete the shave. The image adds an old-world charm to this timeless scene of animal antics. Taken on April 8th, 1937, during a period between wars known for its unique sense of humor and lightheartedness. This photograph is reminiscent of a bygone era when press photography captured amusing moments like these for public enjoyment. It showcases not only the intelligence of our primate friends but also highlights their ability to surprise us with their playful nature. As we gaze upon this delightful image today, it serves as a reminder that even in times of hardship or uncertainty - such as those experienced during the twentieth century - laughter can be found in unexpected places. So let us cherish these animal crackers and embrace the joy they bring into our lives!
