Lucy the Elephant


I love weekends, which I save for exploring all sorts of websites. The trouble is I don't have time to research the stuff I find (Vikings game starts shortly...).

This photo is labeled "Lucy the Elephant, Margate, New Jersey, September 12th, 1939." There must be an interesting story behind this creation.

Photo found at (OVO).

Update: Lucy has her own webpage, and there's a YouTube/History Channel video. And there's the Wiki.
