About Me

My Photo
Name:
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!

POSTERS: ANIMALS







WE WORK TO BOTH SIDES!!!!LET'S TRY THAT LOOKING THE OTHER WAY!












THIS WAS A UNIQUE CONCEPT OF THE MENAGERIE POSTER, & A "KEY" POSTER, IDENTIFYING THE ANIMALS

COMMENT FROM CHRIS BERRY
In today's mass media world we forget what it was like for circus-goers in the hinterlands to see the wild animals of a circus menagerie. Most people didn't travel to big city zoos - and few would ever see a giraffe, hippo or elephant if it weren't for these menageries. Educational? Indeed!
