Additional Description

General note

Three original programs of the Ringling, Barnum and Bailey Circus. These programs give a good descriptive synopsis of circus history and an insight into the life, background, and work of the early circus. They performed at the Danbury Fairgrounds in 1935 and had wintered quarters in Florida.
