Gentry Bros. Circus 1924/ Blowdown

This is a blow down on the Gentry Show in 1924 while still owned by Newman and Austin. Everyone in remarkably good spirits. I have been in several of these events, the worst being with Sid Kellner (James Bros. Circus) in Grand Junction, Colo. I think it was 1969.The old Mills Show top blew away during the performance and quite a few people injured, no smiley faces that day. I was holding the elephants near the back door when I noticed this bank of low lying clouds approaching. As it turned out it was a dust storm, no rain at all, the sand was blinding and in a matter of seconds it had passed, the sun was out and the tent was gone. Buckles
