FRANK BERGEN'S WORLD OF MIRTH SHOWS

One of Frank Bergen's treasured Gold Passes.
Brother Bill had one of these given to him years ago
by an official of the Anderson County Fair, South Carolina,

  1. Dick,
    Olin Johnston was a US Senator from South Carolina, my dad knew him well. Dad was also a good friend of Frank Bergen and Gerald Snellens of the old World of Mirth. That was the show I remember so well as a kid, those bright orange wagons, later red, white and blue striped, being unloaded from the train. They played the SC State Fair here in Columbia for years.
