This poster was used for ten years. I called Clancy today to get this info. Of corues the verbiage was changed from town to town. This photo is from William Robinson.
To answer the comment on the poster. The 1980’s, this according to Charles Clancy.
Walton & Holbert Circus
Posted By thecircusblog on May 10, 2014
This photo and the next, was sent to me from Roger Walton. This is how he came by them. Rogers cousin was going though some old boxes and these two photos were among other family photos. She then sent them to Roger. He knew that there were members of his family in the circus in the very early 1900’s. When Roger saw these photos, it verified that it was true. This photo was taken around 1910.
J.E.Henry Circus Band
Posted By thecircusblog on May 10, 2014
This photo was taken in 1910. Now here is what I call a wonderful find…..the names of two of the band members. Top middle Oscar Walton and in the lower middle is Ed Walton. These two are the brothers of Fred Walton, the grandfather of Roger Walton. I was told by Roger that his great uncle Oscar went on to be a movie stunt man in the 1920’s and 30’s. Thank you Roger for this great piece of history!
