A few of you have heard me over the past eight months prattle on about the circus my mother's family the Ortons owned for many years however this is my father-in-law's circus "Marlow's Mighty Show" here seen in the 1930's. This day they must have appeared as part of a local event since I'm sure the Hillbilly band on the flat bed truck was not part of the show. No idea what the coralled attraction at left would be, maybe a pit show. The performance was a family affair with owner Ruben Ray in clown makeup and his wife Lalea trained dogs, ponies and monkeys.
