A blast from the past

Animal surplus list from October 1978.
Anyone else -- Animal Life magazine some 50 years ago used to regularly advertise Hartmann Mountain Zebras direct from South Africa at £200 each.

Not surprising- I went to South Africa many years back and the first Mountain Zebras I saw were dead ones- part of a cull! They had too many so advertising them for Zoos would have been another obvious outlet for the surplus. Meanwhile, Zoos are desperately trying to conserve them.....
 
Paradoxurus -- any chance of you posting these lists in a format that I can read please? I would love to see detail
if you click on the thumbnail picture, then click on it again once it has opened you should get the full-size photo which is pretty big and easy to read. Works on my laptop at least.
