Quote:
Walter "Tiger" Smith
This is an historical photo of a local identity from the past.
Walter who became known as "Tiger" hunted abroad and travelled internationally in the early 1900's.
In the photo above, check out the two tigers, a leopard, a couple of fantastic sambar stags and what looks like a bear skin at his feet. All among the wine barrels.
(apologies for the lack of quality of the pic which I scanned from my photocopy)
Oh I wish I was rich and lived 70 to 123 years ago!
Or even poor with an adventurous travel spirit.
