EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and experience the wonders of the natural world like never before at Carl Hagenbeck's Wonder Zoo and Big Circus, now showing at Olympia under the expert direction of Charles B. Cochrane. This promotional postcard invites you to join the throngs of excited spectators who gathered to witness the magnificent menagerie of animals from all corners of the globe. Carl Hagenbeck, a pioneer in animal exhibitions, was renowned for his innovative approach to displaying wildlife. Here, at Olympia and at his famous base in Hamburg, he showcased animals in more naturalistic settings, without cages. Behold the majesty of the rhinos and hippos as they wallow in their lush oasis, the graceful giraffes reaching for the heavens, and the regal elephants taking a refreshing drink. Marvel at the exotic flamingos, their pink hues a stark contrast against the grey London skies. Gaze in awe at the lions, their powerful forms a reminder of the untamed wilderness. And don't miss the comical ostriches, their long necks and legs adding to the entertainment. This postcard, dated 1913, transports us back to an era of wonder and discovery, where the boundaries between man and nature seemed to blur. Come one, come all, and witness the spectacle that is Carl Hagenbeck's Wonder Zoo and Big Circus!
