Al G. Kelly-Miller Bros. Circus
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?

Bob- Yes they still exist, although they are a little "rougher looking. The canvas truck sat behind the library for awhile and then was moved to the open air shed by the car shops a few years back. Flint
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.

I'm a big fan of Circus World Museum, but often items like these arrive at the Museum only to deteriorate and never be seen again, sad.
