I wonder if #5 is Princess Alice? I am not sure if she hunted but she was on several safaris in Kenya in the good old days.

The man in the middle in #4 could be Bror Blixen, a guess based on his length (and the context) more than anything else... bewildered

My guess is that # 15 is Pauline Hemingway, Ernest's second wife.

Edited: Number 18 looks a bit like his first wife, Hadley Hemingway, but I am not sure if she ever was in Africa (at least not with him).

Martin

Nickudu, I am the last person who should be doing this, I only spend time on it because I have so booring stuff to deal with IRL right now (proof-reading).

Now I gladly leave this to those who have read the right books. cheers

Thanks for the entertainment!

Martin

Nick, these are TOUGH! But I do know that #29 is Count de Yebes and his world record giant sable, somewhere around 65", IIRC. What an animal!

Correct mrlexma!
Seems as though the pics are just a tad too difficult this time out (I'll get it right) but still, another impressive showing by the members. thumb

16) can't be Ross Seyfried can it? I suppose not.
18) Osa Johnson at her old age Big Grin
22) -
26) -

35) Stewart White

I can't make up anything else out of those! Please, don't keep us in tension much longer!!! Big Grin
