From Jerry Digney #1



Continuing your feature on CANNONS...One of the most durable, reliable thrill acts in circus history: RBBB encored various Zacchini acts many times over the years, going back to the tent show, and continuing with the Zacchini Sisters in the late 1950s, our old pal and all-around circus guy Walter Patterson in the early 60s, who worked as a Zacchini, and Emmanuel ("Lally") Zacchini Jr. and wife who worked the act in the 1970's/100th Anniv. show and also experienced a bad accident in Jacksonville. Lally continued the act in NYC.
