Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

SNAPSHOT: LILLIAN WILSON


Lillian, ran away from her home in Canada with Gil Wilson when she was just a teenager, they made their way south riding in farm wagons & on foot, even spending some time with a group of Gypsies. Eventually they reached the U.S. and joined Cooper Bros. Circus, thinking it was a good way to disappear, as you know they spent the rest of there lives with Circuses.

I really like the cut of the legs on this wardrobe. I would make something like this if still in the business. Just don't make them like they used to! The toga style top looks so comfortable. Never have to worry about something falling out from either end. Could be worn for just about any act except a cage act. None of that netting that I detest so.
