I've always thought it showed very sharp savvy in having both Kit and Acme out there. If one fell to, say, another 1956, and became plastered for any reason, the other did not have to suffer a domino effect. It is likely we see in this the fine hand of Attorney Joe Mercurio.

Although it's corporate title was
the "Kit Circus Operating Company"
it was often referred to as 1 of
"The Acme Shows"

"King Bros" was also considered
an "Acme Show" even though it was
under the corporate title of
General Circus Operating Company
The Cristiani Wallace Show was
under the corporate title of
Sarasota Operating Company not
any part of Acme whatever
"Kit" by the way was Bill English's
wife's name & Bill was heavily involved
with that show early on
ON SUBJECT: Give me a minute, and I'll send you the major statement from CIRCUS REPORT about the King show.
