Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus World

This Collectors Series Show Schedule was issued at the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus World in Davenport, Florida (not to be confused with Circus World in Baraboo, Wisconsin). A central pictorial map of the grounds, illustrated by Tom Utley, is accompanied by a list of attractions and colorful vignettes. Facing stiff competition from other local amusement parks (notably, Disneyworld), Circus World faced rocky financials during its twelve years of operation (1974 – 1986) and closed after three different owners.
