Old John Robinson Circus #7
Posted By thecircusblog on April 14, 2012
John Robinson steam calliope, 1923. The negative is so bad I had to put it between two pieces of glass in order to flatten it to make this positive. No matter how bad the photo, it is a beautiful wagon.

This calliope is safely in residence at the Henry Ford Museum in Detroit, MI. The last I heard it was in storage as they had been cramped for space with all the changes in exhibits.
