A program cover from 1938. Ken Maynard, a cowboy movie star was featured on the show during this time. It was very common for many of the larger circuses to have Western celebrities as an extra draw. The next post will be of Ken Maynard…….. I want to thank Jackie Knupp for the program cover.

Ken Maynard was featured on the Cole Bros Circus in 1936 or 1937…… it may have been both seasons?

This photo of Clyde Beatty was taken in 1923 on the John Robinson Circus. At that time he was working a bear act and mixed group of lions, tigers, leopards and pumas.
