Ringling Bros 1908

Lion and tiger cage wagon. Photo taken during parade. Notice the man on the horse. He is known as an out rider. These men were the eyes and ears of the circus parade. They made sure that all went well.
Please read the great comment Bob Cline made.Thanks.

Note the hard life of being on the road with two of the sunburst inserts missing in the rear wheel. Also note these were only 14 spoke wheels which shows a very early year. As the RR show wagons became heavier, almost every wheel had 16 spokes in them.
