WALKER BROS CIRCUS, 2009 (FROM STEVE KEELER)

The Walker Brothers Circus in Matamoris, PA 6/30/09 I guess you could say this is a typical scene from
from many lots in the NorthEast this season!










BATH TIME ON K-M (FROM HARTLAND SMITH)

These Kelly-Miller circus elephants enjoy their morning shampoo on 7-2-09 in Plainville, Massachusetts. The show is owned by John Ringling North, II. Performances are still held in a tent, but the circus boasts only a single ring, rather than the 7 rings and stages of old time Ringling Bros. and Barnum and Bailey's bggest show on earth. Unfortunately, I can't name the photographer since there is no credit accompanying the picture. -- Hart

KELLY-MILLER 2009 (FROM STEVE KEELER)

These shots were just taken recently in Saugerties, NY by Steve Keeler.
Mr Keeler is from Middletown, NY.
He also relayed some news that I hadn't heard--Fire in the Grandstand at Orange County Fairgrounds in Middletown just a short time ago. And Strates Shows already have some rides parked on the grounds.
Thanks for the photos Steve!
And look forward to many more from you!
