Clyde Bros Circus
Posted By thecircusblog on December 3, 2012
There was one bull in the act that had her moments. Her name was Molly and if she thought she could… she would tip you over. Molly is seen here on the bull tubs while Kathy styles the act. Johnny kept a close eye on Molly. Knowing Johnny as I did, he would say working a tough and a spooky elephant or any animal for that matter is serious business. You can learn much from guys like Johnny Cline. He worked his elephant act with Molly, Dell and Princess until he became sick. Photo, 1971.
After his death, the elephants were sold. To whom I do not know.
Thanks to Bob Cline for his informative comment. Please read.

Hi Ivan, At the time of Johnny’s illness, Benny Williams and his wife Karen took the three elephants to South America where they worked the act for a while. The elephants were sold in South America. To whom, I do not know.
