| Description: | "The world famous Explorer's Club holds its annual banquet. On the menu: polar bear sauerbraten, iguana salad, baked boa constrictors, caribou stew, and lamb's eye!! Not exactly a treat to hamburgers and hot dog lovers but good enough for present day Stanley’s and Livingstone’s. MS - Men in dark business suits drinking, mingling at Explorer's Club. CU - Clay figure of venerable sea captain. CU - Small statue of horned buffalo. CU - Bust of African tribal woman with oblong, intentionally misshapen head, a result of head binding. MS - Banquet table with queer delicacies, each with note card. Panning MS - Myopic old man reading note card of dish while leaning over table, using pen to maintain reading line. CU - Unusual dish (looks like eyeballs). CU - Baked boa constrictor dish. MS - Young woman with messy hair loading plate, sampling a delicacy & somewhat enjoying it. MS - Portly middle-aged man sitting on couch, eating from small plate; a morsel falls form his fork en route to his mouth, falling onto his tie | |
