Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
I met the Gaona family on the Beatty Show in 61 It was Poppa Victor that introduced me to RBBB in late 64 to Trolle Rhodin
I believe that Tito is still running a flying trapeze school in Venice
This shot shows him sitting on the catch trap where he has landed (again & again) after bouncing from the very tensioned net on his comedown After several of these bounce backs when the applause died down he would feign missing it He was 1 of the several crowd pleasing attractions in some of the best Big Bertha years 78 Blue was my very favorite
Winter Pink Films director Sharon Grimberg tells me Tito is among those interviewed for the upcoming PBS circus documentary. She also filmed Tino Wallenda, La Norma, Jackie Le Claire, and yours truly.
