Harold Alzana's hobby was repairing watches.
Perhaps he found it good for his nerves.
His performance certainly had everybody else on the edge of their seats.
I have lifelong icons of every circus specialty. Harold Alzana stood out in my imagination like no one else on high wire, whether with his partners here, or in his indelible solo.
I believe two of the ladies were Harold's sisters, and were named Minnie and Trixie, if I'm halfway close. Can someone name the three co-stars in this shot.
When Holly was bandaging "Minnie's" arm after the train wreck, was this Minnie Alzana?
Harold's sisters were Elsie and Hilda. His wife was Minnie. Roger Smith, what train wreck?
