Description

Could this be The Elephant's Child?

"In the High and Far-Off Times the Elephant, O Best Beloved, had no trunk. He had only a blackish, bulgy nose, as big as a boot, that he could wriggle about from side to side; but he couldn't pick up things with it.
But there was one Elephant--a new Elephant--an Elephant's Child--who was full of 'satiable curtiosity, and that means he asked ever so many questions."

-Rudyard Kipling

Two Bull Elephants are shown engaged in deadly combat in this cool engraved print, one of many favorites in an amazing collection of Victorian engravings I recently scored; wrestled out of the hands of a friend, a lifelong collector of Victorian art.

This outstanding antique print measures 7" x 10".The Elephant's Deadly Fight" would be absolutely fabulous framed.

This amazing illustration will come to your doorstep packed flat in a stiff mailer to protect it from damage on the trip from my place to yours, delivered by those nice folks at the USPS.

This delightful antique is crisp and fresh condition with the usual even tanning and finger smudges one usually finds in 129 year old paper.
