This photo of Jumbo II was taken in in 1935 at the Cole Bros, Clyde Beatty Circus winter quarters Rochester, Indiana. I am hoping that someone can name the bullman working with Jumbo.

This 1935 ad was collected from a antique book store…just lucky to find it. What makes it so interesting and collectible is that both Clyde Beatty and Allen King were performing on the same bill. Can you imagine two big cat acts.

Cole Bros Fire truck, 1949. I don’t think Patrisia is getting ready to put out a fire.

This is the center fold in their 1953 program. Craig’s Chimps worked center ring on the show in 1953.
