CBCB Big Top 1980 (From Don Covington)


CBCB Big Top 1980, originally uploaded by bucklesw1.

Hi Buckles,

I'm finally sorting through some of the things that I've received over the years and haven't looked at for a while.

Thought you might enjoy these photos from the 1980 Clyde Beatty Cole Bros Circus press packet.

All the best,

Don

Either the airplane (used to take this photo) was in a serious nose dive...or you loaded the picture wrong.

Interesting comment.
Having been a U.S. Naval Pilot,
Covington might have liked it better this way.

If you are too old to turn your head 90 deg. to the left, try lying on your left side. Either way will work. On the other hand, who says that a picture always has to be the way you want it to be.

Believe it or not, Johnny Pugh may have been the pilot, the photographer...or both.

Actually, this was Tallahassee, FL opening date in 1978. It was the first time the new Blue & White Canvas hit the air! When this photo appeared in subsequent season programs the slide was reversed and the lettering is backwards!
