I am looking for information from anyone who has knowledge of the
Sells-Floto circus during the 1929-31 time frame. I am involved with building
Playland-Not-at-the-Beach, a nonprofit museum in the San Francisco Bay Area.
One section of the museum commemorates the contribution of Don Marcks to the
world of circus history. We will have a tribute to Circus Report, the weekly
newsletter that Don home published for over thirty years.
We will also have a
massive display of Don Marcks's miniature circus which he handcarved over five
decades, working side by side with his father Isaac. The display is awesome
(See the pictures on our website
http://www.playland-not-at-the-beach.org/),
and it is historically accurate, depicting a summer day in 1930 when the
Sells-Floto Circus was performing. I want to learn more about the Sells-Floto
Circus, especially their route in 1929-1931.
If anyone can help, please give me a call.
