Most of these photos were taken by my aunt Bertha Henry Conner. They were sent to me by her grandson David Conner King. I think his brother Steve also.

Try to set up a circus on any old pasture. These day you would draw a blank. I remember the time that people would help set up the show, just for a tree entrance ticket.

Jimmy Conner son of Al and Bertha Conner. Jimmy doing a little performing for the camera  before the show. I am guessing jimmy to be about 10 at the time of this photo. In the back ground Christy Bros cargo wagon.

I believe this to be a Christy cargo wagon. A wagon such as this one could be used for just about anything on the show.

I believe this is the Christy Bros Circus? The lady with the horse is unknown to me. My Aunt Bertha and Uncle Al Conner were with this circus for a season or two. Perhaps that is why this  photo is in the Henry Conner collection.
