I found these three photos in my dad's books today. There is no indication of who the photographer was.On the back of this it says: #90 tableau cage 14' long.
On the bottom it is noted: I am sure this is later than 1939 as in 1939 this was painted white withsteel tired wooden wheels. This has truck wheels and hard rubber tires and looks like red paint.

I was hoping someone more knowledgeable would jump in here but since no one has, let me offer a few bits. Both # 87 and # 90 came to the 1919 combined show from Barnum and Bailey, they each had picture frames with posts and they had bars on only one side.
# 77 was built for the 1910 Forepaugh-Sells show and used the statues that came off the old Orchestmelchor wagon. Now will someone please jump in here and give more of the history of these fine old wagons?
