My late father-in-law worked for George Engesser in the late 20's on what at the time must have been the Zellmar Bros. show. I have a few pictures taken at winter quarters in San Antonio, Texas in the late 20's - early 30's after the show's name would have been changed to Schell Bros. Pictures include one of an elephant that I think is Ruth doing a "head carry" on a man I believe to be Tiger McCue. I would love to email the pictures to you but have been unable to find an email address for you.

Is this a HW or Cole interior shot, and which baggage wagon?
No idea.
Only time I've seen this picture.
Buckles,

Thanks for what you're doing

This pic was taken on Cole Bros. They used this dressing wagon several years and it went to Robbins with them in late 1938.
