Gil Gray Circus Parade

Posted By on December 21, 2010

 

This was the Cinderella Float drawn by eight chestnut ponies.  The man at the reins really had to know how to handle an 8 up especially ponies as they can be jug heads at times. This is something I would have enjoyed seeing. My Uncle Max and another man built the floats and wagons for the Gil Gray Circus.
