"You picked a damn fine time to come in heat!"

I'm sure some of my fellow old timers remember Eddie Hendricks.
I even recall him from Wallace Bros. when he walked the clothes line with Helene and Norma Rogers
This picture taken with Kelly-Miller in 1950 as he worked in the house riding act with Evalina Rossi and Bonnie Gallagher.
Later in life he had a dog act and I once heard him say, "My autobiography will be titled YOU PICKED A DAMN FINE TIME TO COME IN HEAT!' Which I suppose is an occupational hazard of having a dog act.

Now in retrospect, Eddie might have been ahead of his time.
From what I read on the Blog, this is the title that should have been placed on the circus movie currently in production.

Here is another Eddie quote. On King in 54 he had a wife Helene did single traps and a son about 4 or 5 named Mike. He would sit on our cookhouse table and say, quote,"Mike I sure will be glad when you old enough to drink with your old man".
