HOXIE BROS CIRCUS (SET #1)
This is the first of a set of three sets of Hoxie Pictures,
I'm sorry I don't have any info on these, but maybe some of our
friends will help identify or date these pictures.
Dick, I finally got to see Hoxie Bros in this time period as they did not play Texas. I drove to Gulfport, Miss, to catch them. They had an old Beatty Cole tent and I met Mike Cecere for the first time. I was treated great and had a great time and see all that purple equipment. Great memories from a great circus.
