When I was a kid on Culpepper, Red Johnson had Fred Reed build me a model circus for my birthday. I still have it set up in our living room 20 some years later. I have searched all over for a picture of him to go with the letter that came with it. Thanks.
Hello Casey…..I am happy that the Circus Blog made your day, Fred Reed was a good friend of mine visit the Circus again. Regards Ivan
i purchased 3 wooden oval plaques at a small shop in Tucson in the 1970’s of clowns that the shop owner told me a circus master had made of some of his favorite clowns. They were nicely constructed and colorfully painted, and they hung in each of my children’s rooms when they were little. I still have them. I remember I bought all she had because, at the time, i bought a lot of clowns. Fred Reed’s name is on each of the plaques.
