Flea Circus Ads



I am sure that if I was back in my time machine to a time before radio or television that I would have been all over these posters advertisisng a flea circus. The hype never lives up to the actual event but they sure knew how to sell back then.

I agree with you. If I could go back 100 years or so, I would have been a sideshow fanatic. Ah well...

I'm laughing my ass of 'cause I painted those posters in 2007.

I should say I painted them in '05 and posted them on by blog in '07.
I agree with you too. I would have been all over the side shows back in the old days.
