Floyd and Howard King used this and other titles on their shows in the 1920's.
In this case they inexplicably mistook a few Ringling photos.

Don't know where my leggings and steel pot helmet are.
On second thought, it would be embarrassing if I couldn't keep up.; 11 November, 2012 07:48

Mr King was good about mistakenly using photos from other shows. When the Cole show went out in 1935, all the pictures had to come from other shows. I liked his "Returned from Foreign Lands" theme.; 11 November, 2012 09:26
John Herriott said...: Its hard to believe that I worked for Mr. King and also his brother Howard was there and I also worked on the front door and got to know them as well.Quite unusual people.; 12 November, 2012 10:51
