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...  ----------------------- A man can never have too much red wine, too many books, or too much ammunition. - R.

1) Willie Banks 4) Bror Blixen, Prince of Wales + D F-H 9) Philip Percival + Hemingway 11) Fred Huntington?? 22) Charles Puff 28) Charles Cottar or Arthur Neumann 30) Eleanor O'Connor 35) Philip Percival...? | |||

Some great guesses! I have added correct names to the above listing. | |||
|
| one of us |
Oh no, I'm getting obsessive about this! Gotta recognize them!!  OK, this is my last guess: 1) John Boyes 6) Finn Aagaard 15) Beryl Markham? 24) Edgar Plunt?? 28) Teddy Himself? 29) Donald Kerr 34) Sure looks Elmer Keith on the left but if not...? Beats me. 35) it isn't Charles Newton is it? 36) Nickudu himself! A really interesting topic, more of this, please! | |||

#28 is "TR" (added to above list) | |||
|

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).

Marterius, my friend. Even though you are wrong, you are way too smart! Calling mrlexma, Canuck, the night shift ... | |||

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.  Thanks for the entertainment!

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! Mike Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer. | |||

One of Us |
 That Sable in #29 is unbelievable! My eyes popped out so far they hit my computer screen when the pic came up. Wow | |||

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. | |||

Great pics. Wear do you get them all? | |||

All from the "Nickudu Files", where else? | |||

Now come on Nickudu, I can't take this any longer, who are those rest? | |||
|
| One of Us |
#15 - Ms. Seth-Smith #20 - I think it's Eleanor O'Connor that is doing the shooting. #22 - Harry Selby (on the right without a shirt) and Dave Wolfe behind the cape buffalo head Kurt Soli Deo Gloria | |||

Correct! #15 is Kathleen Seth-Smith. In #22 we are looking for the gentleman to the left, posing with the elephant tusks. | |||

Since you aren't revealing the names, I guess I must still keep guessing...  These are just wild shots anymore, but at least they haven't been mentioned yet: 1) Lord Delamere 6) Roy Weatherby 16) can't be Ross Seyfried can it? I suppose not. 18) Osa Johnson at her old age 22) - 26) - 33) - 35) Stewart White I can't make up anything else out of those! Please, don't keep us in tension much longer!!! | |||
