About this footage
These reels spend a lot of time at roadside stops and fairs. A hand-lettered sign on a chain-link fence reads "BABY ALLIGATORS INSIDE.... TAKE ONE HOME," alligators bask on a concrete ledge, and a carnival midway offers a "GHOST SHIP" ride and a booth for the "HUMAN SNAKE GIRL." Old cars, a Model T among them, circle a small track at a fair, and a mushroom-shaped gnome house sits in a pine garden.
Parades come up often: marching bands in maroon and in blue with yellow plumes, girls in red and white uniforms, a white convertible flying a pirate flag, and a river procession with dignitaries on a boat hung with red, white and blue bunting. Water-skiers in red swimsuits perform stunts behind a speedboat in front of bleachers.
Signs place a few stops, including the Tarpon Springs Curio Store, a "CIRCUS HALL OF FAME" billboard and the Bradenton Municipal Auditorium. At home, a woman in a sun hat sits in a folding chair and a man naps in a lawn chair by the laundry line.
