Mark Anthony who, not only, was a gifted clown in Ringling's alley he was an artist who specialized on carving props from foam rubber. His talent could be seen in everything from hand props, walk-around gags and a life-sized elephant. The vulture on his shoulder is one of his creations.

Mark carved with scissors for me

of foam from our bigger projects

He was truly a dear fellow & a

terrific clown
