More 1930's Barnett Bros. #3

Scan13343, originally uploaded by bucklesw1. Picture #10 below might be misleading. My father was a side show ticket seller with Barnett/Wallace but was often called on should there be a muddy lot or to do a Hospital show if the department was short handed. The elephant boss in those days was Tommy "Daddy" Burns as seen above in 1938. Called "Daddy" due to his compassionate nature in looking out for others and seen here concerned about the welfare of the young ladies. Though this could misconstrued, it is general knowledge that elephant men are best known for their high moral standards.
