Antique newspaper advertising for Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show On Earth on Saturday September 6, 1890 in La Crosse, WI. Ad describes the spectacle of “Nero or the Destruction of Rome” involving 1200 performers. Even gladiatorial games are said to be recreated. And advertising a “grand terpischorean divertisement” which I believe means grand dancing numbers. 11”x4 1/2”. Awesome piece of circus ephemera.
