Southern Sawdust American Circus Magazine

Southern Sawdust. The amazing hairswing trapeze artiste Chris Holt appearing with Ringling Brother’s in 1969.

This great photograph appeared in the American fan Magazine during the 1960s and shows some of the Ringling Brother’s Barnum and Bailey Circus aerial show-girls. Most likely there would be about 20 in total. Sad news this year says that the big show will stop touring after 146 years. Such a great history.

This incredible photograph shows the Cashek Duo performing a motorcycle ride between two buildings!
