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!
GUYIN' OUT
The old fashioned way!
TRUDY & JACQUE ALIZE

Just a note worth mentioning, a great set of photos. What a fantastic insight into how other shows operate in other parts of the world that we rarely get to see. Just goes to show how we in the United States could elevate our standards a little bit. Naturally that requires more investment and more transportation. I've been on that side of the coin before as an owner of my own tiger act. None the less. Thanks for sharing with all of us.

I can only say, I was as much in awe of this show the day we left as I was the day we arrived, a span of 6 seasons.
The awning to the left of the guy out crew is our trailer, so we had a great view of the set up!
Here's Trudy ( unblonde) in her golden boots , and the guy next to her wearing Elmer Fudd reject boots - I probably won't win any prizes now , but it had to be said
