HOWDY, MY NAME IS BILL STRONG, I'LL BE YOUR "24 HOUR MAN", ROUTING YOU INTO THE PAST TO SEE WHAT THE CIRCUS WAS IN DAYS GONE BY. IF YOU'RE LIKE ME, AND MISS WHAT IT USED TO BE, THEN COME ON ALONG AS WE GO DOWN THE ROAD FOLLOWING THE ARROWS BACKWARDS, TO "YESTERDAY'S TOWNS"! IF YOU HAVE CIRCUS RELATED PICTURES YOU WOULD LIKE POSTED, SEND THEM TO,,,,yesterday1@verizon.net,,,,AND WE WILL TRY TO FIT THEM IN. "24 HOUR MAN" WILL HAVE THE FINAL DECISION ON POSTING.
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!
Here is a new one that might rattle your brains and I would hope the guesser would not be anonymous. So, We all know or know of circus greats Poodles Hanneford, Manuel Zacchini, Tony Smaha Sr. and Tarzan Zerbini. What, as performers, did they all have in common

They all not only did their act, but made appearence in the movies.
Poodles even was in the silent movies. Boy does that go way back. I'm glad I am not that old.
Where they all show owners and producers as well?
They were all MALE...and Good MAN.
What I liked about silent films was, after watching an actors lips move for 5 minutes, a little sign would come up with three words on it????
So far, NO NO AND NO.
I know!!!
They all had six fingers on each of their hands!
Just like Shorty Hinkle.

Hint/// Could have some connection to the word Australia.
They were all known to have done whip cracking acts.
