These are classic pictures of a circus (of which I'm hearing the name for the first time), but also of mid-America, in the 1930's. I'm sure some of the members are out of view, but doesn't it seem like a small band?

Looking at the 2 Band Wagons they seem to be different.On one you have 2 cornets ,baritoe and bass horn and bass drum visible . On the other 2 trombones,cornet visible and can see 2 hats in back but can't see instruments.Also can't see in middle to tell if there is a drummer on that float. The way I figure it was at least a 10 piece band.
