Old circus photos that I thought Juggling Edge folk might like.

Some lovely portraits in there. Good find. This set nicely shows the glamour & the mud of trad circus. I like to think that number 2 was kicked out of the Playboy mansion for taking the piss.

Thanks for posting. Great color, especially for the 50s. #13 has some unusual clubs. The book seems interesting, going by the reviews at the Amazon link.

Oops, meant number thirteen, no a hashtag.

Yeah, I wonder who that is. I'm going to take a stab at....
Truzzi.

Yay, what do I win? (I didn't cheat and look it up, honest! ) :-)

The taschen book is gorgeous, a real feast for the eyes (and it's *huge*)
