There was even a farewell party to the skeleton before it permanently left U Halánků. The members of the Jour Fixe held it on May 26, 1892, and called it “The banquet in the whale”. They even created some humorous items especially for that occasion, for example, a special invitation with pictures of the whale from its past exhibition.
