EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to October 1971 at the London Zoo, where great preparations were underway for a momentous visit. The esteemed Emperor Hirohito of Japan was set to grace the zoo with his presence, and every effort was being made to ensure that both the animals and gardens looked their absolute best. Head keeper Sam Morton took on the arduous task of preparing Chi Chi, the adorable panda bear, for this special occasion. Spending hours dedicatedly coaxing her into taking a bath, Sam's determination shines through in this snapshot frozen in time. The image captures a tender moment between man and animal as Sam gently encourages Chi Chi towards cleanliness. It showcases not only his unwavering commitment but also highlights the unique bond formed between keepers and their charges. This photograph is a testament to the meticulous care bestowed upon these beloved creatures by their devoted caretakers. It serves as a reminder of how zoos play an essential role in conservation efforts while providing visitors with unforgettable encounters with wildlife. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene captured decades ago, we can't help but feel touched by Sam's dedication to ensuring that even pandas like Chi Chi were ready for such an extraordinary event at London Zoo.
