DESIGNER UNKNOWN THE GREAT HAGENBECK - WALLACE CIRCUS. 1933 42 1/4x28 inches, 107 1/4x71 cm. Erie Litho. & Ptg. Co., Erie. Condition B+: tears at edges; creases in margins and image and along horizontal fold. Paper. Framed. In a world where imitation may not have been the sincerest form of flattery but the easiest way to produce a poster, it must be noted that in 1924, Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus produced a poster featuring basically the same image and the exact same text promoting the act at the bottom. Circus p. 60 (var).
