Featured aerialist Evalina Rossi is pictured with the band. Fourth from left is the conductor Charlie Cuthbert.
They usually played "Cyrus the Great" for spec, easy to march to.

I ran into Charlie in the early
60's on Little Bob Stevens Sells Bros. We were standing in the back yard when the elephant(1) act was about to enter and he said to me lets get about 2 side poles away and get behind the stake line. He explained that that bull had got himn on K-M just before spec when he was leaning on a flat bed truck. The bull swatted him in the arm and broke it.
