Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
That tub looks to be very tall in proportion to it's diameter Almost looks like 2 short tubs stacked & welded together Ben looks like he's running to catch Barbara on a bounce
I remember that building that looks like a tent. Ah, the good old days.Happy Birthday, America
This photo is all too kind to the look of that poorly proportioned structure that I thought looked more like a Colonel Saunders warehouse from the highway (I-4) Surely it's better to have fond memories though (not me)
Chic, look closer at the tub and you will see the W's all around it. It is a Woodcock elephant tub, or Anna Mays personal tub if you will. :)
YES GARY of course I saw the Ws but only on the top half which is why I thought it looked like 2 tubs welded together (and of course it would have been a nice gesture on Buckles part to have the bottom half AMAMAMAMAMAMAM)
Wasn't that a grab joint behind those windows on the left
After Barbara and I took over the act someone suggested that we should make the tubs taller, it would make the act look bigger.I took the advice. Two of those tubs are now at the end of our driveway, each surmounted with a lamp post.
Sounds like the kind of idea that Irvin might have come up with (I say that with great respect)
I rolled that tub a time or two at the CW park before and after the act. The other tubs I could run with, with this tub we took our time.
