Feb 5, 2010: Damifino

xoxoxoBruce · 02-04-2010, 11:16 PM

I don't know a damn thing about this picture.

I'll leave it to you smart people to enlighten us.

Lion, 2-ewe, bear, doesn't work.

Even if you're Jewish or Chinese, Bear, 2-ewe, lion, doesn't work either.

I looks like California to me, and I'd suppose a circus/carnival act.

But really, damifino?

I put the date of that picture in the late 50s, early 60s. The driver has native American attributes. The 3 boys seem to be blonde tow heads. I agree with the California assessment..... and carnie vibe. I'd raise you a surfer music sound track, and a likelihood that this has something to do with a famous person of a subsequent generation.

maybe it's Kurt Cobain in the back of this wagon?

Driver: man, this EPA horsepucky is really startin' to get me riled.

I will go out on a limb and say it is more recent. The guy is from Mexico and say yes "Californication" is involved. The dog near the cart is a greyhound, not many of them in Texas. I put the place in California also. I would say 80's to now as a time period. There are bars to space the heads of the animals apart so they cannot eat each other.

SPUCK · 02-05-2010, 05:13 AM

This picture is just before the animals figured out they could eat the driver if they worked as a team.

Dog looks more like a Doberman with un-screwed up ears to me.

I call 'shopped. The animals are too equal in size, the pulling action delivered by lion and the bear doesn't really connect to the wagon, and the reigns are attached in weird places. Finally, four draft animals side by side is too wide for the wagon and probably also for the road - two by two would make more sense.

I agree with you. Look at the shadow of the awning and the awning's poles and see that the light is not directly over the passengers, but the shadows of the animals are directly below them. The lion's raised paw, in particular, is lit from above but there is no shadow of it.

Or maybe this is a re-enactment of that Flintstones episode where Fred had a broken foot so the family had to get a hybrid car!

Two by two would be a lot faster, too, if the sheep where in front.

Well clearly that's Radar heading off on his great hotdog adventure.

I believe this is a picture taken during the great horse shortage of '56.

Just a typical 18 holes in Mad Max's world.
