About Me

Location: GIBSONTON, FLORIDA, United States

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!

Victoria was on hand signing her fabulous new book.

Let's not forget a big "THANK YOU" to the Circus Model Builders for their continued support! Every year they line both sides of the long hall that leads to the Circus with their great displays. This organization, and the Circus Fans of America have worked hard to help us preserve our way of life.
