Jimmy Cole said...: Chic, This may have been the 3rd or 4th circus picture I ever took in my life. I was 15 years old, skipped school and was in Fall River, MA to see Beatty-Cole on May 10, 1962. I had borrowed my dad's 127 Brownie Kodak Camera, and would set it on tent stakes to keep it steady.

25 years later I ran into my former high school art teacher who told me he was still angry at me for skipping school that day. He said that he wished I had told him about the circus and taken him along with me!; 20 September, 2009 06:35

the Beatty Show it was Louis

Munoz Sr and I thought he was

killed when he drove the cannon

off some mountain road maybe in

Mexico and I don't remember the

cannon's return Jimmy mentioned; 20 September, 2009 14:10
