Archivist's note
Includes three photos of a chimpanzee smoking a cigarette. Two of these photos state on the back that the chimpanzee is Ernest. George Mottershead's granddaughter Joy Williams (now known as Jo) told the archive team that some chimpanzees came from circuses and already had a smoking habit.
