Sandow Family Photos (1948) Rhyl Pavilion 1950s

Painted from an old photograph – oils. The Sandow family equestrian circus engaging the best of artistes at that time.

This painting is now available as an artprint size 14 inches by 18 inches to frame on the finest print paper. Post and packaging free. (U.K.). Payment via the enclosed Pay Pal at just £30.00 to also include The Stitcher (see art thread) of the same proportions. Children would love these prints on the bedroom wall!The Sandow family had two very happy seasons playing the old Rhyl Pavilion Theatre. The first being 1953 (my schooldays) and the second during 1957. This highly collectable photo was taken in 1913 and appears in the local (also collectable) book about ‘old Rhyl’ The Spirit of Rhyl by Bill Ellis.

1953 – 1957 one will see the huge banner poster; Prince Cox International Circus. This was the finest Concert Hall in North Wales according to local approval. Each Sunday the Pavilion would have top stars in concert and I do remember a very young Shirley Bassey.

The Producer and Proprietor Mr Prince Cox (see The Sandow Family Circus Variety History)
