Getting ready for the parade. The Yellow Tableau got it’s name from a bill of sale when sold or transferred from one show to another. I am sure this wagon had a name, but maybe just got lost in time.

The Yellow Tab was stripped and made into the Cloe Bros light and electrical wagon. At the end of these five photos there is written an explanation that will help separate some of the confusion…… The photos and memo by Stephen Flint.

Never to be used again, so the Yellow Tableau sits at the Cole Bros winter quarters. From 1943 on.

This wagon is lined up front to back. The information I have says photo shot in menagerie top, but I do not see a side wall behind them. It is possible that side wall has been raised up for this shot? Thanks for your comment Bob always welcomed.

Cole Bros cross cage wagon is set up on jacks in winter quarters. This wagon may be in for repair or the undercarriage is being used for another wagon. Animals can wear the inside of a wagon quickly…. especially cats.
