This particular filmstrip was devoted to showing the menagerie. According to a review in BILLBOARD, the 1941 menagerie top was red at the beginning of the season. Many people complained because of the weird colored appearance it created inside, and changes were apparently made, since at later stands, it was reported to be a blue top or a white top.
Richard Reynolds is the ultimate authority on the 1941 Ringling menagerie, and should be able to provide us with more background information on the animals shown here.
