Re: The Magnificent Seven

Years ago I had three 577 3" made by Marcel Thys. They were numered 1-7 etc and had one of these Eles on the bottom. Phillip Grifnee did the engraving. I wanted to do all 7 but never got around to it. This was pre digital camera so I only have a picture of the one I kept, number 1-7 and my favorite. This one is Shingwedzi. We also did Mufunyani and Shawu.

Somewhere I have pictures of them in the museum in KNP. When there in '96 I went on an overnight Game Patrol with a friend for Zambia who was working there. We found one Ele that he said was 100 plus. It had a name, which I forget and can't pronounce anyway. I have some video of it and if I ever get a DVD burner I will post it as it is quite remarkable.
