More Cole Bros. Circus - 1949
Here are a few more images taken by my uncle William Lerche of Bellevue, Ohio. All of these are my photos of his photos in his scrapbooks so some of the clarity is not the best but it gives a very good representation of a day in the life of the legendary Cole Bros. Circus in 1949.
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.
