Here's King Charles, 24 hour man, showing us the way to the circus! King Charles has been around all the shows. When I met Him, we won't say how long ago, He was with Jelly Roll on the side show band on the Beatty Cole Circus. Since then he's been on quite a few shows. He's the perfect all around man to have on a small show. The photos that follow were snapped in Eastern Pa by Mr Fred Hoffman, booking agent in early June. I understand the show was to play a string of dates for Ted Hill in PA. All I can say Bob you've done a Terriffic job. Also I won't forget Albert Buchannan (Hope I spelled it right) who operates the midway and also books the show. You both are to be commended. This show fills a void left by Shows like Roberts Bros and Vidbel
among others.
