ACT action_39055959 -- ***IMAGES TO USED ONLY IN ASSOCIATION WITH THIS STORY**.Photos showing a famous lion that lived in a London flat in the 1960s eating steak, drinking from the loo and enjoying trips in a convertible are to go on sale. The pictures feature Christian the cub that was bought from Harrods in 1969 by Australians socialites John Rendall and Anthony 'Ace' Bourke. See SWNS story SWBRlion. They drove him around to parties in a Mercedes convertible and allowed him to roam free in their upmarket flat in Chelsea. The pair raised Christian in their home above their Kings Road furniture shop - named Sophistocat. It is believed that The Rolling Stones, who rehearsed nearby, would frequently drop by to visit ‘the two Aussies with a lion’. Christian was eventually taken back to his origins in Kenya when he got too big. - 20220602_PD1328 - Rechteinfo: Rights Managed (RM)
