For what it's worth, a friend (and a newspaper column) reminded me that Tony Curtis turned 82 on June 3, and that he has a website wereby fans can e-mail him. I notified him of the passing of Rosie,since he worked with Fay on TRAPEZE, and they both said he was an OK guy to be around. They felt Burt Lancaster, being a circus man early on, was more like showfolks, while Tony was busy being a movie star, but that he was very nice with them.
I was looking for photos and info on rudolph valentino, because I couldn't sleep and decided I was curious about him. Anyhoo, I came across your site It is awesome. I love all the old circus pictures. There is something eerie about old circus picutures, especially the clowns, and the full make up clown in color too. Full make up clowns creep me out. No offense to the guys under the make up. I enjoyed your site very much.
