From Ralph Pierce #1

Ringling082, originally uploaded by bucklesw1. Hi Buckles, Fellow said he had some photos of Ringling and would bring them in sometime. He showed up today with a small album of about a dozen shots labeled - Compliments of Lee Phillips Manager Ringling Bros Mankato (Minnesota I believe without looking in a route book) July 18, 1908 He said later on I could scan the photos but I shot these quickly this morning so I had something not to loose. Sending you a couple of the elephant shots to see if there is any information they give you and if you would like copies when I'm able to scan the photos. There is several more elephant shots on the streets and of course when I scan they will be better for you. Ralph from Baraboo
