Description
Group of 39 press or promotional photographs of animal acts and trainers. [V.p., ca. 1950s-1980s]. Nearly all are black and white photos (three are in color). Nearly all are 8 x 10”. Most with press or newspaper stamps on verso. A few are inscribed by the subjects. One is cut-out around the image of the animal and trainer, one is printed on newsprint in color. Some general wear due to age and use, a few duplicates, slightly curled. An excellent collection. Some of the acts featured include: Clyde Beatty and Saber, The Arley Bears, Pablo Noel for Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, Henry Schroer for Ringling Bros…, Alec Sebastyan Dogs for Ringling Bros…, Stephenson’s Dogs for Ringling Bros…, Malaysia the performing Royal Bengal Tiger (there are several uncaptioned photos of tigers and other big cats), Sue and Rudi Lenz Chimpanzee Family, Pepi and Pepi The Wonder Act, Miss Marian Drew and Dogs, Edward’s Gypsy Bears, R. L. “Dick” Berg and the Movieland Seals, and more.
