Zack Terrell president and general manager of the Cole Bros. Circus.

Anonymous said...: Does anyone know Zack's early years? He all of a sudden pops up on Ben Wallace's outfit as assistant manager in 1905. That sort of leap up the ladder didn't happen overnight in those days.; 02 October, 2008 09:38
Harry Kingston said...: I remember reading i think in the Bandwagon about Mr. Terrell in his early years.
I know he was with the American circus corp. for many years and was a top notch manager of Sells-Floto and it made tons of money and if not he would have been long gone. When Tom Mix was with Sells-Floto they made big money to pay Mix $10,000 a week.
Then he and Jess Adkins in 1935 had the Cole Bros Circus with Clyde Beatty and it was ruff going at first but they had a few great years.

With a shell game and a blowoff in the side show, why would you even ask such a question? Sorry that you don't know how to sign your name.
