From Tim Tegge #1


Hi Buckles -

The movie related items are always enjoyable to see: I've always had a particular interest on the circus through the eyes of Hollywood.

In relation to the recent Leo the Lion postings, I thought your readers would enjoy a peek at this very unique truck-mounted wagon, which the folks at
M-G-M had built in the late 1920's/early 1930's on an REO Speedwagon frame, to use , I would imagine, at movie premiers and special events. Even a
blind man could see that this vehicle was inspired by and absolutely screams C-I-R-C-U-S!

I wonder if this could still be in (hidden?) existence somewhere?

Best to all, and a happy October!
