An Elephant on His Hands

An Elephant on His Hands is a 1913 American silent short comedy film directed by Al Christie, and starring Eddie Lyons, Lee Moran, and Lon Chaney.

Despite his protests, Ramona sends Eddie over to the train station to pick up the beast.

First, Eddie has to pay a $300 shipping bill, and then the stable he rented doesn't allow him to keep elephants there.

The last scene shows the elephant dragging a furniture van with Ramona sitting up on top of it and Eddie leading the procession.

Moving Picture World opined "In this comedy, it is probable that most of the fun will come from the antics of the animals, two of which are featured -- a monkey and an elephant.
