The Henrys
Posted By thecircusblog on November 18, 2014
The roiling globe act is just one of many acts that the Henrys performed. As I have said before, the rolling globe for all of the Henrys is a tradition. All of the Henry children learned this act first. Gary Henry stands proudly on the Globe. Photo taken 1949?

Still Date #13

Ethyl doing spinning plates. When you were not on the road in the winter, these little still dates or club dates would help to keep the money coming in. Early 1950’s
Rolling Globe #12
Posted By thecircusblog on October 30, 2014
The Rolling Globe you might say was one of the trademarks of the Henry family.It goes back to the J.E. Henry Circus. Glen, Clifford and Todd did the globe act on their father’s circus. At that time they had two globes. I’m proud to say I have one of the original globes. Hap, Author, and Bertha also did the globe act. I must mention Max Craig who was raised with the Henry family also had globe act..Glen Henry seen here…..late 1940’s.
