Winifred St. Claire Electric ?
Conner's Colossal Circus
Can't read what the bottle says or identify what the gizmo is on the box at right.
Looks like vaudeville acts to me
Any thoughts?

A still from a film? Otherwise, why would three trunks have identical lettering?

Almost looks like Rubin Gruberg on the left.

Vaudeville trunks usually had either "HOTEL" or "THEATER" painted somewhere obvious on them signifying where they were to be sent from the baggage room of the depot.

Not that I would remember, you understand.
