ROBERTS BROS. CIRCUS

Bill and I had just completed our winter run with the Cole All Star Circus and
were on our way home to Gibsonton when we stopped by to visit Roberts Bros
on a fairgrounds in South Carolina. The year had to be around 1990.
I beleive they were into their second week of the season.
It was always interesting going South on I95 and seeing all the
equipment moving North to open the season!




Here's one of the Dykes Bros conversing with Pat Wainright.
Pat ran the Novelty Joint on Roberts Bros, as well as the cookhouse, for
many years on the show!
