Kandra.. A note for you. Not to long ago my sister Charlotte sent some photos that my mother had. Photos that date back to the 1940’s, 50’s, and 60’s. Among these photos was a baby picture of you, age 5 months. I would like to send it to you if you wish. Give me a call 602 359-6372 for your address. Sincerely IVAN
Gene Holter Ranch
Posted By thecircusblog on September 28, 2012
Ray and Thelma Chandler working with a cheetah most likely for a movie. Gene Holter along with his show also had Movieland Animals. in Norco, Calif. Ray Chandler was one of Gene’s top trainers. Ray must have been born with a natural talent for working with and training animals of all kinds. He never had any formal training. Most trainers have a mentor, or start out in the business as a groom, not Ray. Here is a little known fact about Ray Chandler….. his career started out as a birthday and party clown. His daughter Janice will be sending me photos of him in clown makeup for posting. I also want to thank Janice for all the Chandler family and the Johnny Cline photos.

Cline’s Elephants
Posted By thecircusblog on September 28, 2012
In this publicity photo Kathy Johnny’s daughter is in the act taking Milongas her mothers place. After Johnny passed away Ray Chandler, a good friend of the Clines took the elephants to Benny Williams at Circus World. Benny then delivered them to a circus in Brazil. Molly, one of the elephants died shortly after arriving. I presume the other to are still alive to this day.
