Welcome to Buckles Blog. This site is for the discussion of Circus History all over the world.
NICE set of pixs. Thanks for sharing.
Great shot. You notice the "reserves" (chairs) down the middle and the jacks and stringers along the sidewalls. Standard set-up for rep shows and the like if the top was wide enough, if not the blues went in the back. Rep shows had a bandstand to one side of the stage but of course with a minstrel show the band would be on stage. You can bet they had a dandy candy pitch too.
