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 great early photo of a great lady, who did a great act, from Mike Naughton.
This is a very appropriate comment Roger Smith posted on another Lottie Btunn photo!
It was memorable to meet such a sparkling person as Lottie Brunn on RBB, in '57. She was a beautiful person, with an effervescent personality in and out of the ring, which projected her incredible skills in one of the finest juggling acts ever shown.

It was this wonderful lady, who along with Billy Barton, first said, "welcome", to a scared 18 year old boy, from North Dakota, who had just left home, to take a job on the prop crew with Clyde Bros. circus. An incredible person/performer who I have never forgotten. Her son Michael was also, special. Wade Burck
Not bad looking either!!! LOL
