That's a photo taken on the Barnum lot about 1888.

Mr. Flint,
You certainly go above and beyond in providing the accurate history that you do. In noting the difference in the undercarriage and the entire floor design as well, when was this float redesigned, by whom, and perhaps Why? The newer design has a more stretched out wheel base. Would this indicate that this float might have been tipping over on some turns with the original undercarriage?
