Moving the elephants from Venice up to the Circus World site.
.....can't remember the name of the town.....Gooberville!

Jim Alexander said...: Davenport, FL was the home of Circus World. Most of the commercial life was done in Haines City to the south. (Davenport's not so much of a "gooberville" now, more of a "snowbird center".); 28 February, 2017 06:48
Chic Silber said...: The Felds petitioned the

US Postal Service for a new

zip code for "Barnum City"

but they were refused; 28 February, 2017 10:34
Jim Alexander said...: Would more interesting to tell people I live in Barnum City than explain where Davenport is.; 28 February, 2017 15:51
Chic Silber said...: I recall 1 of the building fronts

perhaps a tremendous garbage joint

was titled "Barnum City Station"

Someone must have a photo of it; 28 February, 2017 17:27
Chic Silber said...: I just found an image of the

"Barnum City" garbage joint

with Shannon & the locomotive

& 1 car from my Happiness Train

that I built for the 74 Blue Show

I'll send it to Buckles Jim; 28 February, 2017 17:42
