Early Cole Bros. Circus #3


Zack Terrell was co-owner of the show, he and partner Jess Adkins put it together from the ground up in 1935. Terrell had managed the Sells-Floto Circus from the time the Corporation bought it in 1921 until it was taken off the road following the 1932 season.
In fact when John Ringling purchased the American Circus Corporation in 1929, Terrell was listed as one of the minor share holders.
