Free Circus

Free CircusIn finding these ads I am suprised that most of them,  like this one,  I do not remember doing the show. It had to be some time around 1959. Dad was booking one day events all over Southern Calif. He had that circus attitude, keep moving on to those one day spots, “keep the money coming in.”

We had so many animals to feed and often times the animals would eat first.  Our overhead was too high so there had to be a change.  Dad started selling many of the animals and we focused our attention towards the chimps act. This became our money maker.
