This photo is of the cover of Beatty’s book “The Big Little Book”. The story is about “The Big Cage”. It was a universal studio film starring Clyde Beatty, Anita Page Raymond Hatton and Mickey Rooney. This photo was given to me for the circus blog from Jack Badal. Thanks …… A little foot note:  I often wonder why the motion picture producers do not make more circus movies?  They have always been a success and they always made money. More importantly, we have some very talented circus performers that indeed are star quality and are just as good if not better than some of the movie actors I have seen lately.
