History of the Big "E"
The Eastern States Exposition, known as the Big "E" has a fascinating history behind it. You can read all about it at http://www.thebige.com/about_history.html This short series of Eastern States Exposition poster photos were taken inside the Brooks Administration Office at the Fairgrounds.
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.
