Cole Bros. Circus "Logo"
Upon the development of the Cole Bros. Circus for the 1935 season, Jess Adkins and Zach Terrell had this marvelous logo created for them. While this originally had Clyde Beatty and Ken Maynard on it, the swift marks of a gold pen erased that bit of advertising.

One time in Monroe, WI, my dad asked Orville why he was now supt., and Curley answered that they needed someone to take the fall when the grandstand went down. Bob Kitto
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.
