Buckles, what's the year and name of these elephants?
"Anna May", ""Ellie", "Topsy", "Eva", "Toby", "Lovey", "Sue" and "Jackie"
(dogs name was "Babe)
L to R- Ben Williams, Bill Rowlett, Frankie Braun, John Herriott and William Woodcock.
Combined herds of James Bros. Circus and Circus World Museum.
I don't recall this event but we were obviously encamped on the Museum grounds probably in 1969 the year before John went to Wrangling Bros. as would all of these elephants (excepting "Ellie) within the next ten years.

Buckles,
What happened to Topsy after her short time on Vargas with Rex ?
I had forgotten all about that, Rex called her "Hard Times".
I stopped keeping records in 1996.
Is that the Topsy that went to
the Beatty Show & became a 4
act with Frieda Jewel & Jackie
in ring 3
Chic: I think the Beatty-Cole Topsy might be the one Gene Holter bought at the Jungleland auction.
Either Topsy or Frieda was a
bit dingy I recall
