Rare Sideshow Circus CDV Photos Trained Birds & Trainer by Eisenmann
Two original 1870s CDV of performing birds and their trainer… No doubt “professional performers” considering the photographer, Eisenmann, who was famous for his photos of sideshow and circus personalities. A very rare set! The CDV with the trainer in it is slightly trimmed (dimensions are 3.75″ x 2.5″). The one with the bird on the rolling log is not trimmed and is in very good antique condition with light edge wear and some toning on the back. Sideshow oddities history circus animals barnum.

1910s CARNIVAL Plantation Minstrel Show BANNER African American Vintage PHOTO
This is part of a unique set of photos from “Captain Jim Moore’s Famous Shows” Carnival & Sideshow Traveling Show based out of Bridgeport, Pennsylvania. This original image is one of 5 from different carnival shows they set up across the country. He ran sideshows along with carnival rides and games. This photo features a great sideshow banner for the OLD PLANTATION SHOW. It featured African American performers. The man in the middle with a beard is Capt Jim Moore, the owner of the traveling carnival show. These photos are from the estate of Nettye Cameron who traveled with the circus (possibly as a manger for Mr Moore). These photos come from her estate, down the line from her great great nephew. She worked closely with the side show cast as she had a lot of photos with them and some were signed (will be offered up at a later date). Please check my other auctions for more vintage photos. In most cases, the actual original photos are much clearer than the posted images. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Photographic Images\Photographs”. The seller is “photofella” and is located in this country: US. This item can be shipped worldwide.
