Item Description
27x41" one-sheet poster featuring inset portrait of Tom Mix at top left w/his facsimile signature below his image. Poster features an impressive and crowded Big Top scene, showing Mix on his horse Tony, leading a group of Canadian Mounties on horseback amongst a plethora of circus acts and animals that include clowns, equestrians performing tricks on horses, acrobats and trapeze artists, performing bears, elephants as well a performing zebra and dog. Show is touted as "Part Of The Two Hundred Acts Of Many Nationalities And All Descriptions." c. 1936. Poster has some wear along bottom margin from date sheet removal. Pin holes at corners w/some small pieces of tape. Lower left corner has some creasing. Poster was originally folded but remains bright and clean and fold lines blend for the most part. 2-5/8" margin repair at top center blends somewhat. Margins show some lt. aging/wear but poster would frame for an Exc. display. Stunning circus poster. Fred Hoffman Collection.
