1975 Circus World #1 (From Buckles)


About a year and a half after the park opened in 1974 it was shut down for six months from Oct. 26, 1975 to Apr. 2, 1976 while the theater was being built as seen in the background.
On this day Rex Williams dropped off his elephants, "Reed", "Gardner", "Gyp" and "McLain" to baby-sit while he delivered the rhino he had sold to a show down in Mexico.
