the mural that is painted on the walls in the Chimes is a copy of the mural on the original tiger cage.

That picture looks like it was taken from Tiger Stadium looking back over mike's habitat back to the north.


Definitely

Look at the sidewalk around the cage in the pics from the 50s and 60s compared to that one.

Is that a baseball field in the bottom right? Looks like the top of a backstop, then a fence going down the third base line that the players would stand behind.

Rough set up for a tiger back then.

Just a tiger and his thoughts.

I looked at all the pics and that is one beautiful animal. He has a pretty nice set up now, but have you found him a girlfriend?

Hell, you can even see in in the one from '52. Thanks for pointing that out - didn't think to look at those pics.
