CIRCUS Cooke Family
Disbound albums of photographs relating mostly to members of the Cooke family depicting circus performances around the world as well as portraits and other travel photographs
Various places 1920. Two oblong albums or portions of albums with many detached images. In all approx. 300 photographs. Many trimmed and mounted mostly 2x3 inches or smaller. A fascinating archive of photographs relating to the famous family of Cooke's Royal Circus.<br/> <br/>The Cooke family was one of several notable families during their time of circus performers and owners that spanned several generations. In circus families family members were taught and trained in the necessary skills of various acts in the circus from a young age and then integrated into the family business. Cooke's Royal Circus was started by Thomas Cooke in Scotland around 1780 after which he and his extended family members traveled around Scotland and England doing performances. They were especially noted for their equestrian acts and continued to gain in popularity and grow to around forty participating family members by the 1830s. In 1836 Thomas Cooke's son brought the show to America where they performed in cities including New York Boston and Philadelphia before returning to Britain following a mixed reception. They continued to perform throughout the rest of the 19th century and the 20th century in both travelling shows and various "permanent" locations. Images include animal acts with elephants and horses as well as clowns stunts and other acts. Many images are captioned detailing locations including Great Britain including performances at Wembley Stadium France Italy and India. Although mostly from the 1920s the album includes a loose carte-de-visite of John Henry Cooke autographed by him on verso and dated 1874. unknown books

CIRCUS
Gen. Charles Stratton with wife Lavinia Warren Stratton 2 photographs another of Commodore Nutt & Miss Minnie Warren also "The Fairy Wedding Group" featuring all four in wedding outfits and finally an 1865 CDV captioned "Gen. Tom Thumb Wife and Child";
Original carte-de-visite photographs of Charles Sherwood Stratton better known by his stage name "General Tom Thumb" a dwarf who achieved great fame as a performer under circus pioneer P. T. Barnum here photographed with his wife Lavinia Warren AUTOGRAPHED in Stratton's handwriting on verso <i>"Genl Tom Thumb & Mrs Tom Thumb - 1863 August"</i>. The couple were married in February 1863 for which it is said President Lincoln hosted them with a reception at the White House. The 2nd picture of the Strattons in their wedding costumes also a picture of their best man and bridesmaid Commodore Nutt and Minnie Warren Lavinia's sister and the wedding party together all in especially fine condition with dark brown hues each having facsimile autographs on the verso by their subjects. In addition an 1865 photograph of "Gen. Tom Thumb Wife and Child" verso blank. Altogether 5 carte-de-visite original mounted photographs the first with imprint verso backboard of Charles D Fredericks & Co 587 Broadway New York then three "from photographic Negative by Matthew Brady" imprinted by E & H T Anthony 501 Broadway the last by J Hall junction York and Fulton Sts Brooklyn.<br /><p>Born in Bridgeport 1838 to parents who were of medium height Charles was a relatively large baby weighing 9 pounds 8 ounces 4.3 kg at birth. He developed and grew normally for the first six months of his life at which point he was 25 inches 64 cm tall and weighed 15 pounds 6.8 kg. Then he suddenly stopped growing. By late 1842 4 years old Stratton had grown only one inch additional though his body was proportionate and functional. The showman Phineas T. Barnum heard about Stratton and after making arrangements with his parents taught the boy how to sing dance mime and impersonate famous people. He toured America and Europe in 1845 during which time his performances marked a turning point in the history of freak show entertainment. Prior to Stratton's debut the presentation of "human curiosities" for the purpose of entertainment was deemed dishonorable and seen as an unpleasing carnival attraction. However after viewers were introduced to Stratton and performances he was able to change the perception people held toward freak shows. Stratton's lively entertainments made these types of carnival shows one of the most favored forms of theatre in the United States.</p><p>His marriage to Lavinia Warren also a little person became front-page news. The wedding took place at Grace Episcopal Church and the wedding reception was held at New York City's Metropolitan Hotel. The couple stood atop a grand piano at the reception to greet some 10000 guests. Rare to find a vintage picture of the couple dated and inscribed so early in their marriage and nice companion images inscriptions on three other pictures are in facsimile handwriting.<br /></p><p><br /></p> books

Pullman Circus. Pullman Giles manager.
Programme Three Mammoth Entertainments for one price of admission caption title; verso caption title: A Startling Surprise for Everybody . . . Living Curiosities Will be Introduced during the Concert Performance Without Extra Charge.
N. p. n. p. ca. 1878-1880. Some short shallow chips from one long edge; a trifle toned and soiled; in very good condition. Single leaf printed recto and verso approx. 20.25 x 7.13 inches illustrated with numerous woodcuts of human oddities. An attractive ephemeral showbill from the veteran circus promoter Giles Pullman who offers a "Grand Comic Concert Monster Museum and Feast of the Ferocious Wild Animals." The latter promises to be a "Crimson Carnival of Blood." One side of the showbill is devoted to woodcut portraits of the "Living Curiosities" to be seen without extra charge eight acts that include some of the better-known names of the period--the Madagascar Family Rudolph Lucasie and his wife and two children European albinos touted as Africans and performing in American since ca. 1860; the portrait is adapted from the well-known Currier & Ives portrait; Madame Lyons "the Wonderful Bearded Lady;" General Mite celebrated little man Francis Flynn 1864-1898; as well as "The Persian Beauty or Fan Woman" a variant on a Circassian woman; a living skeleton the fairy queen the Wild Man from the Island of Ceylon and "Nena the Egyptian Wild Girl." This seems certainly a late appearance of the Madagascar albinos; General Mite seems to have started performing around 1878 and married in 1884 and some accounts have Madame Lyons dying ca. 1880 n. p., unknown books

THE BIG SHOW COMING! / THE STANDARD AND RELIABLE / SHOW OF AMERICA! / ENDORSED BY THE PRESS OF THE COUNTRY / HOWES' GREAT LONDON CIRCUS. / THE BIG SHOW AT / WACO / SATURDAY JANUARY 1st 1876./ followed by 17 panels of text offering cash prizes for various challenges involved with the circus entertainments 14 wood engraved illustrations of acts and circus animals and other promotional text; similar material appears on the verso
Indianapolis IN: Indianapolis Journal Print 1875. First edition . Illustrated advertising broadsheet 28 1/2 x 10 5/8 inches employing a large number of sizes and styles of type including nice display types. The show traveled via its own fleet of 42 railroad cars "Mr. H. Barnum with years of experience catering to the tastes of lovers of amusement and artistic mechanism has put together a show with the sole view of eclipsing any and all heretofore attempts as to Splendor and Novelty." Howes' Great London Circus began its season in St. Louis Missouri according to the New York Clipper edition of March 11 1876; it was in New Orleans on November 20 1875. An ad in the Little Rock Arkansas Gazette gave a December 1 1875 date for its appearance in that city and noted that the circus would be appearing in "all the principal cities of Texas" beginning in that month. Henry Barnum ca. 1826-1902 was a showman and manager for several circuses during his career; in 1873 he purchased an interest in Howes' Great London Circus along with James E. Kelley. Lavish production low attendance and rail costs contributed to the demise of this circus at the end of the 1876 season being subsequently sold to Cooper & Bailey who continued to employ Barnum. Apparently not recorded on OCLC. Despite the defects a nice exhibition display broadsheet. Creased from folding some old staining to margins some short tears repaired with cello-tape two in margins one along a fold affecting several words printer's inking defect affecting the first two letters in the headline word "Howes". #6169. <br/><br/> Indianapolis Journal Print unknown books
