Probably your best bet is the Clevealnd Public Library photograph collection:

You also might to check with the Cleveland State University's Cleveland Memory Project:

There may be something in this collection, but I didn't look through all of the images:

Did you consider calling the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo public relations department to ask about the availability of historical pictures?



BOL!!!
If your still interested in old photos of the Cleveland zoo I reccomend going to cardcow.com Its a site with pictures postcards. things like the old bird building and one of the old gorilla / cat and reptile Building.

If the 1980's is being considered historic then I must be a dinosaur at the age of 30!

I'm sure you could find some pictures at the Cleveland Public Library, or even Cleveland State's library has a whole archive section of old pictures of the city. Also maybe the Western Reserve Historical Museum they have a lot of "old" pictures!
I got a really great slide show of it from the 1980's. It is from Yahoo.



Here you go.
