Watching The Tip

Posted By on July 23, 2011

Butte, Montana, in the early 1950’s. Sitting on the running board of the pick up truck in the right side of this photo is P.W. Siebrand. Now the Siebrands did have a very plush office but Pete loved to watch the tip.  He would spend his afternoons walking around the midway. Quite often you could see him in the audience enjoying the acts in the circus. You would always know when he was close by because of the aroma from the pipe that he smoked.
