Summary
Pathe synopsis: The world’s most pricey pet’s perch? We make no claims, but at the Hampstead home of humorist and playwright Donald Ogden Stewart, there is a statue valued at £2,000, which serves as a perch for pet monkey Peter! The statue is a work of art in itself - with Peter gambolling on top of it, it almost qualifies for entertainment tax, too!
