Columbia Bandwagon
Photographed here in 1946 on the Cole Bros. Circus, the wheels have been changed to the carnie style wheels and also moved the back axle closer to the front. Notice the steps going up to the door now. If you look real close, you can see the wide range of colors on the carvings now.
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.
