EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the lively scene of "The Sale by Auction of Myers' Great American Circus and Hippodrome". The engraving, created by John Charles Dollman in 1882, showcases a momentous event that took place within the vibrant world of circuses. In this bustling arena, gentlemen gather around to witness blind bill auctions for various circus attractions. Elephants stand tall and majestic as they are paraded before potential buyers. Lions roar with power and grace, their presence commanding attention from all who behold them. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation as bids are made, knocking guineas against wooden surfaces. Every detail in this engraving tells a story - from the feeding of animals to the dragging away of newly acquired treasures. It is a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to glimpse into an era when circuses were at their peak. "The Sale by Auction of Myers' Great American Circus and Hippodrome" serves as both a historical record and a testament to human fascination with these extraordinary spectacles.
