EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a truly unique moment in history - the arrival of Baby Jumbo, the Daily Mirror elephant, at Marlborough House to attend Queen Alexandra's garden party. Taken by an English photographer in the early 20th century, this postcard from a private collection showcases the novelty and amusement that this event brought to London. In the photo, we see Baby Jumbo being escorted by a cute policeman guard as they approach the gate of Marlborough House. The sight of this adorable infant elephant surrounded by uniformed personnel surely delighted all those in attendance. The animals' presence adds an element of entertainment and excitement to what was already a grand occasion. The image also highlights several other wildlife animals present at the garden party, further enhancing its appeal. From newborn babes to playful toddlers, these creatures added an extra touch of charm and wonderment to Queen Alexandra's gathering. This historic photograph is not only a testament to London's rich history but also serves as a reminder of how humans have long been fascinated by wildlife. It is no wonder that this scene has become immortalized on postcards for generations to come.
