This issue featured the wonderful collectable Sir Robert Fossett’s old Parade wagons that were sent to the Ringling circus museum in Florida for display. Obviously drawing the crowds!
When the large Fossett’s Circus closed in England its historical old parade wagons were sent to America and placed within the circus museum Florida. This is just one wagon taking part in the Old Milwauke Parade. One will notice the Union Flag flying.
The Wilson Pourch magazine featured a ‘Big Top Beauty’ in each issue. This photograph shows the lovely Gilda Christiani 1970.
Below we have the beautiful aerialist from Australia Gail Kelroy.
