Description

This image was taken for a story that ran in The Manawatu Evening Standard on 28 June 1961 "Two life-like tigers caused considerable interest in Main Street when they were being unloaded from a truck. They are to be used for a window display. Bystanders looked on, but kept their distance just in case."
