National Geographic sent email on November 2 at 11:10 am "Photos of the Century" with dozens of historical images. Statue of Liberty's construction, Hitler and Nazis rise to power, Hindenburg disaster at Lakehurst. Man's first landing on the Moon. Many interesting iconic photos, but the only one I've downloaded is Audrey Hepburn shopping in a grocery store with her pet deer Ip. Most movie stars have servants doing grocery shopping chores, & food stores don't allow dogs and cats inside but exception made for Audrey Hepburn. Here she is with her pet fawn Ip, shopping cart by her side, kneeling near the floor, examining contents in a box of Honey Graham crackers. Audrey met the fawn Pippin when filming "Green Mansions" directed by her husband Mel Ferrer in 1959 based on William Hudson's novel of Rima, a jungle girl in tune with wildlife. The animal trainer let Audrey take Pippin home so she will be accustomed with wild animals. Audrey & Pippin bonded in no time, even sleeping together cuddling That's why her pet fawn followed her shopping in a grocery store. Peter Y. Chou Mountain View, 11-3-2022 |
