The Hoyts brought in many exotic animals and ornate craftwork
from Zimbabwe and other parts of Africa.

[This table held many delicate crafts, from an etched ostrich egg sitting on three wart-hog tusks to a knitted lampshade.]


[Mrs. Hoyt displays a beautiful map of Zimbabwe, and each region of the country is covered with a different skin.]


[A giraffe carved from a tree trunk; the head of a sable.]


[Mrs. Hoyt arranged this board to show the diversity in Zimbabwe and Africa.  The skin belongs to a kudu Mr. Hoyt himself hunted.]

[Isn’t the likeness of these African buffalo uncanny?]
