The artwork from the cover of the 1935 program posted by Roger Smith was also used as a poster that season, and brought back for Al G. Barnes in 1936.

A close look reveals that this image of Nelson is a doctored photo, and the same pose on the HW
'35 program is artwork from the photo. Whatever medium chosen for use, Bert Nelson, as he noted, indeed had his day. No circus was represented by a finer gentleman.
