Shoemaker Wilfred Hunter uses ''Rusty'' as a model. Boots for an elephant. How's that for size?: Doncaster shoemaker Wilfred Hunter recieved an unusual order recently it was for a set of four boots for an elephant. The order came from an Indian potentate and the boots are for wearing by an elephant on ceremonial occasions. Today Mr. Hunter visited the London Zoo to fit the first of the boots on 'Rusty' whom he is using as a stand-in for the elephant in India. Photo shows Mr. Wilfred Hunter tries on the first boot on ''Rusty'' at the London Zoo this morning.
