A large lion cub was one 'of the more exotic guests invited by Mike Todd to the gala supper he hosted following the screening of "Around the World in 80 Days". Cannes 1957.

Guests at a gala supper in Cannes, 1957, gather around a large transport cage containing two lions. The animals were among the more exotic attractions at the event, hosted by producer Mike Todd following a screening of his film, "Around the World in 80 Days." A large male lion with a full mane looks out at the onlookers, one of whom points towards the cage while another man raises a vintage camera to photograph the scene.
