Colorado and his touring menagerie. • In 1938 I started out for the San Francisco World's Fair, arriving in 1939. Soon after my arrival I shipped my outfit back to Colorado and then started for the New York World's Fair. I arrived in New York in 1940 and was back again in Colorado in 1941. • The touring menagerie has traveled from the Atlantic to the Pacific and from Canada to the Mexican Border. One of the Most interesting features of the menagerie is the 9 year old ox who weighs 1700 pound. • The menagerie makes about 10 miles a day. I was born in Lebanon, Indiana and now in 1946 am 58 years old. I have spent most of my time in the West since 1916. I followed picture painting and sketching until 1937 when I was forced to give up this work on account of the paint affecting my health. |
