Barnum & Bailey 1910's/ Unloading flat cars #1

I like these type pictures that give an idea of the sense of urgency that it took to move a show this size over night and adding to the excitement are the town kids running atop the stock car. The teamster has hung his coat over the horse's harness in case of rain. #30 wagon appears to be carrying jacks or bible-backs for the grandstand indicating that the flat cars must be almost unloaded since the seats are the last things needed on the lot. The stock car in the background is half living quarters, no doubt horses in one end and teamsters in the other.
