EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this enchanting scene from the early 1900s, as the Circus parade makes its grand entrance into the bustling town of Burnley, Lancashire. The air is filled with the sweet scent of popcorn and the excited chatter of onlookers, as the colorful procession winds its way through the cobblestone streets. Dressed in their finest Edwardian and Victorian attire, the performers of this traveling spectacle proudly display their unique talents and entice the crowd with promises of wonder and delight. From acrobats and jugglers, to strongmen and clowns, each act is more captivating than the last. The elephants, adorned with intricate painted designs and bedecked with flowers and garlands, lead the way, their majestic presence drawing gasps of awe from the spectators. Behind them, a riot of color and movement unfolds, as performers on foot, horseback, and in elaborate floats, make their way to the circus grounds. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, illuminating the vibrant costumes and the joyful expressions of the performers and the townspeople alike. The sense of excitement and anticipation is palpable, as the circus promises to transport its audience to a world of magic and wonder, far removed from the daily grind of life in early 20th century Lancashire. This evocative photograph, taken from the Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into a bygone era, and invites us to imagine the stories and memories that lie behind the scenes of this enchanting Circus parade in Burnley.
