Under its agreement with Ringling, Paramount supplied the costumes worn by the movie’s principals while Brooks supplied the costumes worn by the circus personnel. A memo in the DeMille files indicates that costumes were usually delivered to the Circus on credit, with Brooks being repaid after the show had opened and was making money. In 1951, however, Brooks decided to discontinue its policy of extending credit to the Circus, because it always took so long for them to be repaid. In order to insure that filming of GSOE remained on schedule, Paramount advanced Brooks some or all of Ringling’s 1951 costume money, which was later deducted from its bill with the Circus.
