1937106410<p>Oblong 4to booklet format illustrated 111 pp. Cover and spine wear spine essentially gone normal aging; about very good for this type item. The Cole Brothers circus was founded in 1884 and lasted until 2016 when animal rights groups essentially drove them out of business. In 2017 Ringling Bros. faced the same fate. In the 1930s the circus included legendary animal trainer Clyde Beatty who is featured in this booklet and Bobo the Clown. This somewhat scarce piece of circus ephemera includes pictures of performers promotional articles official program and route schedule for 1937.</p> Cole Bros Circus,
1905List01132Chihuahua 1905. Albumen photographs most measuring 4 x 6 and smaller. Photographs faded and with wear some stray marks and scuffs to versos good condition overall. Good. We find scant information about Circo Perez a traveling circus in Chihuahua at the turn of the century. The circus was directed by Praxedis Perez and appeared to be largely a family affair. The present collection includes three overtly circus-related cabinet cards: an outdoor scene of the circus tent with a crowd of spectators looking at the camera the verso bearing the note “Circus Perez Chihuahua 1898â€; an advertisement for the troupe Compania Acrobatica de Variedades y Grandes Novedades with a portrait of the director Praxedis Perez; and a cabinet card portrait of a girl in costume. The other photographs appear to be a mix of gifts from grateful patrons and unidentified photographs likely family members. Two photographs relate to a Capitan Manuel Villordo both dated in Chihuahua in 1900 one showing the man on a horseback in military attire the other a gift from a Caciano Perez. Another photograph shows an older woman with two children beside her with the verso identifying her as Prudencia Perez. Overall an evocative if somewhat mysterious group worthy of further research for scholars of Mexican performance. unknown

191253602New York: H.N. Tiemann Co. 4 East 30th St. March 1912. One silver gelatin photo. 7.5 x 8.5 in. w/ embossed photographer’s stamp at lower left corner pencil annotations on verso of photo 1 corner w/ very slight loss still VG image with bright strong contrast. This image depicts the famed Renaissance Revival structure based on the Moorish Giralda Tower in Spain at Fifth & Madison Ave. in March 1912. Designed by Stanford White for McKim Mead & White this historic venue included the largest amphitheater in America equipped with a tank for aquatic shows a rooftop theatre cabaret restaurant and concert hall. The Cleopatra spectacle featured 1500 performers including the African-American minstrel troop organized by James Wolfscale featuring his three sons and the rest of the musicians mounted on camels playing their instruments. The show which ran from March 23 - April 22 1912 is perhaps best remembered for the widely reported suffrage rally held by 75 women circus performers of the world’s first “Circus Suffrage Society†and notably snubbed by the socialite Suffrage Movement leaders including Harriet Stanton Blatch. Led by Josie De Mott a bareback trick rider acrobat Zella Florence and included women animal trainers wire walkers hand balancers dancers acrobats and the renowned female Hercules -- Katie Sandwina. This Madison Square Garden was demolished in 1924 after the New York Life Insurance Co. which held the mortgage built their landmark Cass Gilbert-designed New York Life Building and another Madison Square Garden venue was opened on 8th Ave. between 49th and 50th.

1863BB055Original carte-de-visite photographs of Charles Sherwood Stratton better known by his stage name "General Tom Thumb" a dwarf who achieved great fame as a performer under circus pioneer P. T. Barnum here photographed with his wife Lavinia Warren AUTOGRAPHED in Stratton's handwriting on verso "Genl Tom Thumb & Mrs Tom Thumb - 1863 August". The couple were married in February 1863 for which it is said President Lincoln hosted them with a reception at the White House. The 2nd picture of the Strattons in their wedding costumes also a picture of their best man and bridesmaid Commodore Nutt and Minnie Warren Lavinia's sister and the wedding party together all in especially fine condition with dark brown hues each having facsimile autographs on the verso by their subjects. In addition an 1865 photograph of "Gen. Tom Thumb Wife and Child" verso blank. Altogether 5 carte-de-visite original mounted photographs the first with imprint verso backboard of Charles D Fredericks & Co 587 Broadway New York then three "from photographic Negative by Matthew Brady" imprinted by E & H T Anthony 501 Broadway the last by J Hall junction York and Fulton Sts Brooklyn.Born in Bridgeport 1838 to parents who were of medium height Charles was a relatively large baby weighing 9 pounds 8 ounces 4.3 kg at birth. He developed and grew normally for the first six months of his life at which point he was 25 inches 64 cm tall and weighed 15 pounds 6.8 kg. Then he suddenly stopped growing. By late 1842 4 years old Stratton had grown only one inch additional though his body was proportionate and functional. The showman Phineas T. Barnum heard about Stratton and after making arrangements with his parents taught the boy how to sing dance mime and impersonate famous people. He toured America and Europe in 1845 during which time his performances marked a turning point in the history of freak show entertainment. Prior to Stratton's debut the presentation of "human curiosities" for the purpose of entertainment was deemed dishonorable and seen as an unpleasing carnival attraction. However after viewers were introduced to Stratton and performances he was able to change the perception people held toward freak shows. Stratton's lively entertainments made these types of carnival shows one of the most favored forms of theatre in the United States.His marriage to Lavinia Warren also a little person became front-page news. The wedding took place at Grace Episcopal Church and the wedding reception was held at New York City's Metropolitan Hotel. The couple stood atop a grand piano at the reception to greet some 10000 guests. Rare to find a vintage picture of the couple dated and inscribed so early in their marriage and nice companion images inscriptions on three other pictures are in facsimile handwriting.TOGETHER WITH:BLEEKER Sylvester: Gen Tom Thumb's Three Yers' Tour Around the World accompanied by His Wife – Lavinia Warren Stratton Commodore Nutt Miss Minnie Warren and Party.New York: S.

18482312New York: Cameron's Steam Presses 1848. About Good. 23 x 9 inches. Broadside. Yellow stock printed in black with specifics about the location date and price of admission written in red pencil in the appropriate locations and to the upper margin. Worn and creased; loss to upper margin affecting legibility of the name of the hotel possibly "Vermont Hotel" where the circus was held; chipping and marginal loss to left side; faint dampstaining. Promotional broadside for a circus held in Wells NY on October 6 1848.

Also featured are the Swiss Brothers who performed "upwards of Thirty different Tableaux taken from some of the most famous models of Ancient History" and a "negro extravaganza" most likely a minstrel show rather than a performance by African Americans.Not located in OCLC.
