Originele reclame-affiche (offsetlithografie), te dateren omstreeks 1950. De reclame-studio Peso kreeg in het begin van de jaren '50 van vorige eeuw de opdracht voor enkele affiche-blikvangers die de uitstapdag aan speciaal tarief per trein naar de dierentuin Antwerpen in de verf moesten zetten. De fifties-vormentaal van het ontwerp valt meteen op. 
Naar verluidt wordt de jonge oostelijke laaglandgorilla 'Gust' afgebeeld, toen de lieveling bij uitstek van het publiek.
