SARASOTA CIRCUS FESTIVAL PARADE 1993
That's the late Capt. Fred Logan with the Beatty Show Elephants. The small wagons were from Allan Hill's Collection
If you would like to identify some of the folks in these pictures feel free to leave a comment!
This picture was probably taken just down from ROBARTS Arena on Ringling Blvd...one block from Fruitville Road....The horses I believe were S. Zerbinis....I was usually standing across from Robarts except for one year rode the ROBERTS BROS. Agents/Advance Crew wagon.
ELMO GIBB on the first elephant and a Logan girl on the second of course Captain Fred Logan leading the Clyde Beatty - Cole Bros.Circus Elephants....Johnny Pugh and Allan Hill during those parade days did so much for the Committee.....So, why doesn't Sarasota place Johnny Pugh on the Ring of Fame?
