Here are a few pictures from Circus and Carnival Fan Ed Tracy's sets he offered for sale years ago. This is the World of Mirth Shows taken in 1958.

I remember this show well, as they played The South Carolina State Fair for years here in Columbia. The show was painted orange until around 1960-61 then they started painting it in red, white , & blue stripes. I heard that Frank Bergen got the idea of the stripes from the old State of Main Railroad boxcars that were painted the same way. Yes the cut down flat was from the Tim McCoy Show as was the other stock that carried the tractor`s. I believe that Cole Bros had them before WOM.
