5805CIRCUS. ALS. 3pg. 8 x 11. December 18 1940. Lexington Kentucky. An autograph letter signed W. Shelby Jaxon on The Zephyrs stationery. Jaxon wrote to W.H. Warner the technical director of Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Combined Shows Inc. The letter states in full: Hello Bill I just received your letter. Sorry you are having a tough time getting the Boys up to practice. I also am having trouble finding some way to practice the Bars. The colleges are Basket Ball Crazy now and I can't practice nights and I have no one to practice in the daytime with me. I just worked a one nighter. I used Big Blakeman as my partner. We were a little slow and stalled a bit but we went over 100% and got encores. So we didn't feel so bad. The warehouses have closed until Jan 2nd and the Barrel Hog Factory has moved out of town. So I won't get any work around here. If I had a Bar Act in shape ready to go I could go to work tomorrow night for 4 straight weeks in clubs and then get a unit show. Blakeman wants to quit his job and go with me. But he needs two months straight practice before he would be presentable. He doesn't realize that I had a top and speedy act when I worked these spots before and that is what they expect me to give them now and I can't do it with him the shape he is in. So I am just letting it go. I have the triple ground bars all set and painted up and ready to go. They really look fine on a stage. I painted the bar tiles gold and shined the uprights and they are the cleanest neat appear stage bars I have ever seen when set on a stage with lights on them. I got a letter from a fellow in Chicago who just finished building a rigging that folds and has two bars. He wants me to work with him and furnish the car and split fifty-fifty. But he says the rigging folds down instead of together. I am not taking any chances as I have no way he has a practical rigging. He wants me to come to Chicago and practice a week and go to work but that costs money when you consider you also have to buy wardrobe and get photos made. So I turned it down not knowing him either. Jake Crumley told him about me. I have a job coming up in four or five weeks which will last about 5 to 7 weeks at pretty fair money. I have got to go out of town to see about it next week. It is for aerialist Harold Voise on serial bars. Did you ever hear from Walter Guice I am rebuilding my car's generator and fooling around with my car in general as I just had a fellow pay me $25.00 he has owned me for over two years that wasn't hard to take. Bill I think I had better stick around and try to pick up something around here until February and then I can go to work for Voise for a few weeks and from there it will be easy going. Let me hear from you and don't worry too much about the bar practice or the folding rigging take it easy. I'll probably be able to send you some money to start on the folding rigging when I go to work for Voise. As Ever W. Shelby Jaxon. unknown
1892List3690N.p. 1892. Folio 9 ½ x 11 ½ inches. 17 pp. Pink printed newsprint wrappers with photographic portrait of John H. Sparks on the front cover. Covers detached paper toned and fragile as typical of newsprint; fair to good overall. An unrecorded music folio issued for the traveling circus of John H. Sparks in the early 1890s self-described as “The Best Collection of Music Ever Published.†Sparks based in Ohio was building his circus during this period into a touring wagon show combining trained animal acts equestrian performances and sideshow attractions. Sparks toured widely presenting afternoon and evening performances and like other traveling acts relied heavily on printed ephemera for revenue. Songs include “Waiting to Hear the Verdict†by Chales Osbourne; “Annie Reilly†by Johnnie Carroll; “Don’t Abuse the Old Folks†by Will H. Fox; “When the Sea Gives Up its Dead†by J.J. Nolan; “When Summer Comes Again†by James Thornton; “The White Squadron†by Arthur West; “Wait Till My Ship Comes Home†by John Walsh; “My Old Dutch†by Charles Ingle; and “Buy a Nice Little Home in the Country†by Ed. Barry. Several compositions are copyrighted by Frank Harding 1864–1939 at the Royal Copyright Office which is peculiar and suggest the possibility that this was for an English audience though Sparks is not known to have toured England during this period. Harding was a New York music publisher who operated Frank Harding’s Music House at 229 Bowery during the formative years of Tin Pan Alley. unknown

50367Paul Dupont, Paris, (circa 1904)
In folio (50×40 cm); foglio volante. Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Testo entro cornice xilografica. Manifesto per pubblicizzare la rappresentazione del noto circo “Gran Circolo Olimpico” bolognese che si esibiva nell’Arena del Sole di Bologna. La famiglia Guillaume diresse a lungo gli spettacoli circensi che si tennero all’Arena del Sole (e poi anche in altri teatri) a Bologna. La compagnia circense “Guillaume” venne fondata a Francesco Luigi che scappato dalla Francia durante i turbolenti anni della rivoluzione francese si fermò prima a Nizza e poi entrò nel territorio della penisola. Entrato in Italia acquistò il Circo Pellé econ esso girò per qualche anno l’intera Europa. Ritornato in Italia fondò il “Grande Circo Equestre Guillaume”. Gli spettacoli di questa nota compagnia vennero notevolmente apprezzati dal pubblico e dai regnanti europei fra i quali il principe Eugenio di Beauharnais, il re Gioacchino Murat e la regina Carolina di Napoli. Una parte della famiglia continuò l’attività circense a Brescia dove si era stabilito Luigi, una volta rientrato in Italia, mentre un’altra parte dei suoi discendenti fecero di Bologna la loro base operativo dove, dalla prima metà dell’ottocento, organizzavano i loro spettacoli, in particolare, presso l’Arena del Sole. Esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Raro.
