This image of a thylacine pair (artist unknown) was featured in the 1973 edition of "Grzimek's Animal Life Encyclopedia", a large and comprehensive set of volumes on animal life.  Named after its original editor in chief, Bernhard Grzimek, the encyclopedia was first published as a 13-volume set in German under the name "Grzimeks Tierleben" (Grzimek's Animal Life) in 1967-1972.  It was translated into English in 1972-75.  The encyclopedia was an international collaboration by a large number of scientists and remains an important reference to this day.

Zoologist Bernhard Grzimek (1909-1987) was the director of the Frankfurt Zoo between the years of 1945-1974, and served as president of the Frankfurt Zoological Society for over forty years.
