The boy on the other hand might be from a more famous image. Edit: So I did a bit more checking, and I was right the elephant was totally off. The original image is of "Pete the Pup" http://americacomesalive.com/2011/08/01/pal-the-wonder-dog-and-his-offspring-pete/ Last edited by a moderator: Apr 15, 2012

That's right, in the old days faking a photo like that would have taken a little actual work!
