The Circus Museum at the Big "E"
Fairgoers can enjoy the Circus Museum, located in the Hampden County Building, featuring miniature scale recreations of circus wagons, carousels and carnival midways, acrobats, a side show announcer, hand-painted banners and memorabilia as well as a hand carved replica of Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus tent show in 1946.
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.
