First we see a Lentz Bros photo that was shot at Peru winterquarters for the 1927 Hagenbeck-Wallace program. It shows a twenty-three year old Beatty with the former Pete Taylor act after he had started enlarging it. |

Dave your offering of these Beatty photos are just great and also your commentary that goes with them. This first photo is exceptional and I would assume rare. Unfortunately it is so smsll on my screen. I would like to see a blow up. I am so proud to have known him personally and to have seen him perform numerous times. I still maintain that he was the greatest circus personality of all time. And I only got to see him in the early fifties. Again thanks for the photos and the informative dialouge.
