I had thought that this wagon had a Hagenbeck-Wallace background but I wasn't 100% sure. I asked Mr. Fred Dahlinger who confirmed it was. The Chariot racing scenes were added by Circus World. The wagon itself was a chair wagon and bought buy Jerry Booker who eventually sold this wagon and a HW Cookhouse water wagon to Circus World. It is believed that the Water wagon was scrapped for parts while at Circus World. Bob

I should have added that this wagon is now at the Circus World Museum in Baraboo, WI.
