Capell Bros Circus 1950

Posted By on October 10, 2011

A matinee in Atoka, Oklahoma. Doc Capell didn’t carry too many wild animals on his circus. His spec was rather weak, so when given the opportunity he would invite the local 4H or the Future Farmers Associations to come the circus. It made for a nice spec as you see here with a young men and their  calves and goats.  The kids loved it, so did their parents and the city fathers always invited Doc Capell back.
