A little warm up before going on. At the time of this photo the circus could be Hoxie or Kelly Miller. Might be around the mid 1950’s.

Tommy did just about everything in the circus, but I think he loved his riding act and working with horses best.
Bentley Bros Circus in the 1980’s.
Tommy’s Baby

Tommy showing off his little African Elephant. Please be patient with the lack of information that I have on Tommy Bentley. I was given about four or five hundred photos of him dating back to his childhood. The information on most of the pictures is non-existent, so your help with comments is sorely needed. Thank you.
I just got a call from Susan Bentley, Tommy was her uncle. She wanted to know if I would send her some Bentley family photos. These photos have never been posted and most likely never will be as they are personal family photos.
Of course I said yes to Susan.

I believe this photo was taken in the early 1950’s on the Kelly Miller Circus.
