Hello again. I've had a couple inquiries as to what have you been doing, why aren't you posting anything?
Well...... I've been busy. I came up with the brilliant idea that all these scrapbooks need to be digitized and shared, not just sitting on a shelf. So I have started scanning each and every page and identifying every picture that I can. Some aren't marked at all. Some are obviously photos of a photo. Collected over 50 some years and put in these scrapbooks, you'll find photos taken by my family as well as photos from Wm. Koford, Dick Conover, the Pfening archives, P.M. McClintock, Don Smith and others. There are over 50 scrapbooks. I've got 7 of them done so far.
In order to share these for their circus historical value, I have started putting them on my website at
http://www.thecircusworld.com/ and I'll have an ad in the Bandwagon for them. I'm absolutely certain, you will be delighted with them.

Compared to the man standing there, it looks like the sidepoles on the cookhouse were only about 7 foot tall.
May you all have an abundance of joy, health and happiness with those that are near and dear to your hearts!
This brilliant courier is over 100 years old now. I'm offering it on eBay this week with it ending on Sunday. I use tigeract as my eBay seller's name.
This interesting photo shows some of the beautifully carved cages ready for parade. This was in my uncle's scrapbook and is stamped on the back Kobel's Frankfort, IN.
While this will be a huge undertaking and well worth it to all in the end, I've had a lot of fun creating the labels to accompany these CD's as well.

We are enjoying a few more of Marv Gauger's photos again today. This one was taken on August 7, 1983.
If I remember correctly, the White Mack has no Circus history. It came from the City of Chicago Water works.
Here's three items of interest that the Al G. Kelly-Miller Bros. Circus gave to the Circus World Museum. These photos are part of the Marv Gauger albums. Do these units even still exist?
