Proof of the existance of a monster in Loch Ness

Silver gelatin photographic print by J.B. White Ltd., titled "Proof of the existance of a monster in Loch Ness." Undated. Caption on verso reads: "Our photograph shows what appears to be the foot of a reptile. The foot which is about 18 inches long has been recently found on the shores of Loch Ness. The skin is as hard and as thick as the hide of a crocodile, with talons 4 inches long. It has probably been shed by the Monster after the manner of certain reptiles. The exhibit is at present at Castle Urquhart, Loch Ness, where it is attracting a large number of visitors."
