I am a HUGE fan of Henry Mancini's work. One of the greatest composers who ever lived, in my opinion. (How can anyone disagree with that?) And
Baby Elephant Walk from the Paramount Picture "Hatari" is just one of my many favorites. If you aren't sure whether you know it, click on the song title above to go over and have a listen on YouTube. (This post was inspired by this picture, below, that was among the vintage book pages I recently bought over at Oodles and Oodles):
Then, there's also my favorite baby elephant - Walt Disney's Dumbo! Here is one of my vintage Little Golden Books:

Such cute pink baby elephants on this cocktail party invitation from 1952. My sister has some great pieces of vintage glassware with pink elephants on them!

I absolutely LOVE your little ceramic elephant. How adorable. It made my morning just to see him. Love T
I have a small collection of elephants that just sorta "happened". They are such amazing animals, and I love your collection of images. That blue ceramic one - I WANT HIM! :)
And I used to play "Baby Elephant Walk" on the piano - I'll have to go dig that up! Love that song!
Love the Dumbo attraction at Disneyland!! Even at my age!!
Cuteness! That cocktail napkin is really something special. Whenever I hear Baby Elephant Walk, I think of The Simpsons. I love the song, though.
