Scope and Contents note

From the Series:

Letters to and from a variety of regional circuses. The letters largely concern orders for posters, handbills, small advertisements, tickets, business cards and the like, including a few orders for letterheads. But a fair amount of other circus lore is also included: news about animal purchases and new acts (requiring new or changing art work), allusions to financial successes or more often straits (with requests for extended payment or credit), remarks on competition between circuses, and general circus gossip.
