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 are some photos that have passed through the "Dime's Store" on their way to collectors all over the world.
THE ZACCHINI TRAMPOLINE ACT 1957
Walter Patterson, Bruno, & Eddie Zacchini
THE HANEL'S HORIZONTAL BAR CASTING ACT
THE CONNELY'S HIGH ACT
This is from The great Barrington Mass. Fair. The two hoops on the bottom were possibly used by Cimse's daughters, as The Sils Sisters.
