Doc Capell Letter Head
Posted By thecircusblog on November 17, 2011
In the 1940’s and into the early 1960’s Doc promoted shopping centers to use his carnival and circus as a means to attract people in a higher volume to the stores………. It worked! On the midway, discount coupons were given out for merchandise in the different stores. In turn, stores offered discount tickets with a purchase for the rides. This idea became popular with many circuses and carnival owners. Even to this day it is likely that you will see a shopping center show somewhere where it is least expected.
