This is the same World of Mirth wagon in the background that appears in Posting # 8.

Bob, It may be before my time, but I don`t ever remember a World of Mirth wagon with a brake wheel.

I was just told that this is out at Thousand Oaks and the wagon would be a former Hagenbeck-Wallace Wagon.

I'm not your wagon man, but this #85 in other shots is lettered "World Wide Wild West Show and Rodeo". Historians may well decide it had been re-painted from H-W. I recognize the hills of the Conejo Valley, home of Thousand Oaks. By the time the now-present Civic Center was placed on the old Compound lot, the bulldozers had so reconfigured the land, Jungleland veterans cannot identify where anything ever stood that we knew.
