Most of these photos were taken by my aunt Bertha Henry Conner. They were sent to me by her grandson David Conner King. I think his brother Steve also.

I believe this was my grandfather’s sideshow. He would change from year to the next. It might be the same animal or what ever. The only thing that ever changed was the verbiage on the banner.
