Description
Commercial postcard showing a diorama of taxidermied cheetahs at the Quex Museum. The museum's founder, Percy Powell-Cotton, frequently travelled to Africa collecting specimens for his natural history museum, one of the first of its type to display animals in dioramas that replicated their natural environments.
