Here are a few more photos from the H.Vasquez show. When you drive
up to this show your thoughts are" neat, neat".
All tent air conditioners are all show owned units. The smaller top in
front is for a theater type concession stand operation.
Quite slick.

Jimmy,
Thanks for sharing the photos. Very nice looking kit! Great to be able to look on Buckles Blog at shows you might not have the opportunity to catch. Gunther, Mark, Eddie Del Moral, Rick Boger and myself visited the Vasquez show in Mexico City in 1998, and a good time was had by all.
I have also enjoyed the Hunt and Cristiani/Wallace photos recently posted.

There are a lot of fine show's in Mexico.
I got to see a lot of them during our time spent on Circo Atayde.
I also enjoyed the photos of Cristiani/Wallace show.I spent a bit of time around the Hunt show when I was a punk.Jimmy Cole has quit a lot of fine shots during that era.

Erik, Jimmy-

Would the seating capacity be around 1500?

Going by what they would manage to get into the tent on the Vidbel show. I would say this thing must sit
"Ten Thousand" ???

PS.I think 1500 to 2000

That's the way Circo Tihany looked like when I worked for him almost 30 years ago. From the moment you step't in to the foyer tent you where on raised boards and carpet.
Every morning about 5 people with vacuum cleaners would spend hours cleaning. All plastic bucket seats, even in the cheaper sections. Tihany told me that a lot of the shows in Europe looked like this in the old days except for the plastic bucket seats of course.
