Anonymous said...: The Campbells took possession of this wagon about 1908, buying it from Pawnee Bill. It was with his outfit by the mid-1890s and may have had a Forepaugh heritage, and maybe another show or two before that. Another early Forepaugh tableau went over to Lillie's outfit, thereby establishing the pathway.; 30 May, 2008 09:48
