Then only infor I have on this set of Pictures is Playtime, 1960's.I beleive this was a show owned by New England's Billy Burr and his Dad before Him.
Back in the ;late 50's and early 60's these time shows came about to take advantage of all the new strip shopping centers that were popping up around the country.
Probably one of the most famous were Paul A. Miller's Free Circus, Dub Duggan's Free Coircus, and Billy Burr's, which went on to play Fairs.
Like to see some more comments on these pictures might be BILLY Burr pictures...Don't think Billy has a computer maybe someone could check with Billy....
ReplyDeleteI might have made a mistake since I've been thinking about it. I beleive Billy's show was called Billy Burr's Funarama. We definitely do need some comments on theis one!
