Dear Circus blog readers,
Yesterday a man named David Chestnut called me concerning his ambition to write a book on the original “101 Ranch Wild West Show”. Our conversation was very exciting. The following 15 photos are from his collection that he obtained from his research. His great uncle Bill Caress was on the show which is what originally stirred his interest. David is now traveling throughout Texas and Oklahoma visiting people whose relatives were once on the “101” in the hope to obtain more facts, stories and photos for his book.
I’m hoping that anyone who can contribute to David’s book will contact me and I will put them in touch with him………… Thank you. IVAN
Please read comment from Dave Chestnut.

Dave please make a comment on this photo. I think Bill Caress is the lower person.
Vernon and Edith Tantlinger are the top two, thanks Dave

I believe this performer last name was Copper. A friend of Pawnee Bill.
I don’t know his real first name. He just went by Tex Copper.
