I would suggest that during this small period of time that this was the finest overland show ever put together. First class mobile equip. well painted. Great circus show, sideshow, concert,etc. all well done. great PR with elephant "Chevrolet" daily parade, plus wagons, teams. Lots of animals. I remember it well. Lots of comraderie.johnny
Agreed. During this photo series of the last few days I thought I was viewing a genuine old-time circus from before the Depression. So much that we'll never see again from the big menagerie to elephants pulling stakes to the wild west concert. I caught this show on its last legs when it limped into New England during the time it had its brush with the IRS but knew at the time of its great years just previous to 1963 or so when I caught it.
