Unidentified!


I have received so many pictures lately that things sometimes get out of control.
No ID on the back of this picture and I can't remember which group it came from.
Maybe the sender can help us. Posted by Picasa

Buckles,

You don't have to post this as a comment, you can just delete it, but I was hoping that you could add a link to "Pat Cashin's clownalley.net" in your links.

We've been adding a lot of video recently. If you haven't checked it out in awhile I've posted The Gutis, the Banana Man, Charlie Cairoli, Mike Coco, Lou Jacobs, George Carl...some pretty good stuff.

I've also got you and Barbara on Hollywood Palace on VHS that I can upload to YouTube for you, if you'd like. YouTube videos can be posted to your blog, no problem. It's REALLY easy.

Keep up the good work! Your blog is my first stop every morning and the best source of honest industry information anywhere.

Thanks,
Pat Cashin

I think you are right and that being the case, the photo came from Mr. Marcan.

Buckles,
I have some old photos of my Grandfather that I would like to share with you. Sorry for posting here but I couldn't find another way to contact you. He was a handler/trainer with John Robinson and possibly Sells-Floto. I'm guessing late 20's, early 30's. One pic is dated 1931. His name is Sam LaFleur. He passed away in 1985 so I was just in my teens then. I wish I had asked more questions when he was alive but I do remember his love for elephants. He always talked about his favorite, Tillie, who is buried here in Cincinnati (Terrace Park). Or that is the rumor i think. You can contact me thru email at Gibs29@yahoo.com.
Thanks!
Lori

This is Sarah Houcke with "Jasmine" on 2000 RBBB Blue Unit with Marcan Tigers. Currently she is working in France with 3 tigers of Flavio Togni, one of which is one of my old tigers I gave to Flavio before I left Europe.

Sarah is today back with tigers after years. In fact, last week she took over Flavio's tigers at Cirque d'Hiver replacing Hans Suppmeier. This because Hans took the second Flavio's tiger group from Circo Americano in Italy to Cirque Arlette Gruss in Bordeaux, France...

Does anybody else share my opinion on that horid looking black rubber floor (which they still have today)? It does nothing to enhance either the performers wardrobe or the animals.

I think it looked better when they had the light green colored matting.

To Jim Cole:
Why would you want to do that you would lose that new bought celetex look.However they might add some gray duct tape in a tick tack toe pattern. What do you think?
