This photograph is part of a series of snap shots at a Davenport circus, of which four are in this archive. The photos are all small format snapshots and the circus has highly ornate fronts to exhibits. The photos are torn from an album and black paper adheres to their back corners.
The photograph shows a crowd of men and women in front of a ornate front with a series of illustrations on the wall.
