Photo Album "19", 1926 - 1937

 File — Box: 38

Scope and Content

This album is a white 3-ring binder with plastic photo pages and photos affixed to black paper. The first seven pages are of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey train cars and correspond to some of the lists of descriptions that are tucked into the front pocket of the album. However, several of the lists of photo descriptions do not appear to match any of the photos in the album. After the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey photos, there are thirty-nine photos of Al G. Barnes & Sells-Floto advertisements, trains, and wagons. Then there are another twenty-one photos of Al G. Barnes & Sells-Floto turcks, trains, and wagons in 1937. The following set of photos depicts Clyde Beatty-Russell Bros. Circus trucks and animals. Next, there are forty-six photos of a 101 Ranch Wild West parade. The last set of thirty photos shows Sparks Circus animals and wagons in 1926.
