Ringling Bros #10
Posted By thecircusblog on October 27, 2012
All of the show wagons making ready the line up for circus parade. The wagon in front is called Bells & Chimes of Moscow. It has its original wheels. I have no date on this photo.
Thanks Bob for your comment.

This photo is actually taken on the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus. Please note one of the three arched corporation cages is in the background on the right hand side. The production of these cages started around 1921 and went through 1927 for this particular design of wagon. More were made in 1928 but their roofs are different.

Ivan,
I spoke with Steve Flint about this. Considering all the wagons that we can see in this photo and knowing the Hagenbeck-Wallace history, this photo os probably from 1934i
