After the season of 1968. I never saw nor worked with them again. I know that they were still performing their act as it was too good not to be somewhere in the circus world.

Javier “Peluza” Esparza and Tobie of Henry’s Chimps. This photo was a newspaper shot used for a show write up and later put into the Polack Bros program. After each trick that Tobie did, he would style in this manner to milk the audience. It got so that he understood that the more bows he […]

Herbie and Chatta Weber were like family. I remember them first as a kid on the Escalante Circus in the very early 1940’s. We worked numerous shows together over the years. They were terrific people and true blue to their profession. For those of you who knew Herbie, and perhaps worked with him in a […]
