Barnum & Bailey posters at the Big "E"

This amazing 1894 two sheet flat poster was made by the Strobridge Litho Co. It features the Ethnological Congress in the giant midway of the menagerie. This is part of the Chris Berry Collection. This entire exhibit was made possible by Greg Parkinson Enterprises. You may or may not know about Chris Berry. He has known the Parkinson family for years so the assembling of a project of this magnitude was easily fixed with Chris supplying a great majority of the posters for this exhibit. Chris heads up ABC Radio news and travels quite extensively which has helped his locating posters to add to his collection. He is a Circus Historical Society member and has his own blogsite at http://circusposters.blogspot.com/ where he offers simply for trade many great old Circus posters. I have a link for him below simply titled Circus Memorabilia for trade.
