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 Mary, another talented member of the Yokoi Family who's talents were possibly lost in the shadow of her sister.
WARNING! WARNING!, The film this is from is pretty bad so watch it at your own discretion. I will not be held responsible for wrinkles caused by eye squinting, to see better!!!!

Thanks' 24rh man, for the video of the Yokoi family. never did seen the act , but it was well worth the quinting of the eyes, a great bicycle act.
Wow a real blast from the past.I have finely figured out why not to many folks copied this act it aint in the wardrobe and it aint in the props.
"Some class A talent there folks"
P.S.Dam good Mr.Bill thank you sir.
P.S. In regards to Lilly Yokoi still working. She would have to be at lest around 68 to 70 these days?
And some of her tricks could be a bit of a challenge.
