476 image1902: Barnum & Bailey, 'The Greatest Show on Earth', the most famous Circus company of the time, two pre-printed envelopes in different designs, probably from a European tour in 1902 from NEUILLY (SEINE) to ZURICH, addressed to the Operationsmanager of the Swiss Railways. The Circus was famous for travelling in its own train, which was also the home to its Artists. In this context a correspondence with railway ops is very plausible and shines a light on the Circus' history. The heavy contents have left minor traces of wear on one envelope, which nonetheless is a great asset to any thematic collection 'Circus'. (Image 1)
