Does anyone out there remember the old late 80's early 90's Remington Safari Ammo ads with the Cape Buffalo picture staring at you??...followed by the subject statement. I have looked high and low through my old SAFARI (SCI) magazines where I recall these ads were prevalent and can't for the life of me find one!!
I would like to have one of those ads to add to my clips I frame and hang in my Trophy Room...this is a particularly good one...especially for those visiotrs who don't really appreciate BUFFALO HUNTING!!
Any help in finding one would certainly be appreciated.

Actually, I recall that line from Capstick's book "Death In The Long Grass" chapter on Cape Buff.

Capstick was quoting Ruark, I believe.

" They look at you like you owe them money"

And that's just the porters in the airport. You're probably better off with the buffalo. bewildered
