F is for Follow-up - A is for Ally' Animals

When we last looked at these aluminium flats, I said "I was pleasantly surprised to find I had in fact added nine additional animals to the rhino", but it turns out I didn't have a rhino', I had a hippopotamus! And several other figures, only one of which - the goose - is a duplicate, as I can't now find the new ones, we'll have to look at the old ones here, and once I've (hopefully) found some more we'll look at all of them, together, one day?

Actually . . . while I'll leave the above, it makes a good opening paragraph and I had to look up the 'Unknown European Flats' folder in the 'Unknown by Country' folder on the 'Unknown' dongle . . . it's bollocks! The previous post WAS the storage stuff, these have come-in in the last few months!

Sitill unknown Wild Animals; include err . . . a hippo . . . along with a long-horned deer or mountain goat of some kind, ibex? And a stork which makes the previously seen leggy bird look like an ibis or something, collared vulture?

They must have come from Sandown Park, probably from Adrian, I'll thank him anyway as he often puts interesting stuff aside for me.

The domestic animals in this sample are more numerous, restoring the balance, as it was wild animal-heavy, while with the squirrel and rabbit we're looking at woodland creatures as well.

As I said last time, I don't know how large the set is, or if it's several sets, or if they are connected to the caricature Nazi's we looked at first in this sequence. I do still think they were cigarette premiums, but that's still to be confirmed.
