Helane

I believe this is Helane Hendricks who was the wife of Eddie Hendricks. If this is so, the last time I saw her and Eddie it was on the Siebrand Circus 1955.

Jimmy Golf on the left, Don Ray on the right, two fine circus musicians. Jimmy played the drums, Don on the Hammond Organ. For just two guys they made a lot of music……… They were always there if a performer was in trouble.
Siebrand Bros Circus 1954

The Siebrand family may have been the first to combine a realistic circus to the back end of a carnival midway, sometime in the very early 1930′s.

This is a very rare photo of the Siebrand Bros Circus. I am guessing that this photo was taken just after 1945. At that time, they had a six-piece circus band. Through a magnifying glass I could only recognize Mr. and Mrs. Clark. They had the dog and pony acts. This photo is part [...]
