Does anyone know the whereabouts of Rosa Bonheur's Old Darby? It toured
America (probably by train) and stopped in Beaumont, Texas as well as
Balboa Park in San Diego, CA in 1914
(http://www.sandiegohistory.org/amero/notes-1914.htm)
I am curious to know how the "World famous" Old Darby came to be
exhibited at the White House, a department store in Beaumont! (see ebay
6537968426).
