J. Hope - Animal Importer
I have to admit, I've never heard of J. Hope. I don't know which show this was either, but it would be fun to do the research to find out. This was in the Billboard on August 5, 1905 on page 28.
I performed from 1973 to 1995 with a couple years off in between. I did an aerial cradle act for three years, low wire as a clown, trained llamas, ponies, then lions and tigers for 15 years. I am now a firefighter, a member of the Circus Historical Society and an author of several circus and carnival related subjects.
