Barnum and Bailey Circus on Walnut St

The Barnum and Bailey circus parade of 1917 was the last real one in Evansville. Several small shows attempted to have parades in later years, but in general they fell into disuse all over the country after that time. This view was made as the parade was passing the corner of Second and Walnut Streets.
