Another Great London clown. I think this is some kind of walk-a-round gag. 1921.

Lion tableau, 1921. The band is in their regular uniforms for this parade. It took me hours to render this photo from it’s negative.

Great London Circus band wagon, 1921. This band wagon is hand carved as most are, but this one is very deep in its dimensions. From the looks of this photo, they are preparing for their parade. Notice the teamster pulling the reins hard left, the horses take his command.

M.L.Clark Circus ticket wagon. There was no date. I found just two names. Mac Miller and Charlie Dryden a foot juggler on the show,he stands on the far right.

Dales Bros Circus sideshow. From 1948 to 1950. Year of this photo taken one of the three.

Photo taken as elephants are leaving the back door from “Spec.” To be perfectly honest with you I don’t remember this circus too well. The name Dales is just a faint memory… Can anyone make a comment?

I found this old photo but I really don’t know its origin. It could be Al G. Kelly Miller, or Dales Bros.? It was shot in the late 1948.

George Keller was known for his cat act, “Keller’s Killers.” He was called the professor because before he became a lion trainer, he indeed was a college professor.
