Manders Menagerie

from North East Museums

• Muffin Days said:

  This is a particularly happy discovery for me as it shows my mother, Nancy Manders, with one of her younger brothers, probably William in front of my grandfather George Manders` living wagon. George along with brothers Albert, Joseph and sister Ellen traveled Manders Grand Star Menagerie from about 1912 to the early 1930s. Their parents Joseph and Ellen Manders had created the menagerie in the latter part of the 19th Century after the demise/sale of William Manders Grand National Star Menagerie. We have very few photographs from that time, so this is an amazing find.

  Do you know that there is a Book , Called Manders Menagerie , with lots of photo’s in it , you can buy it on Ebay , or Amazon .

• Muffin Days said:

  LuckyLady777 Yes... I do have it and it is a wonderful archive of the Manders family shows and menageries. The author was able to use excerpts from the short biography of my mother's childhood that I wrote for her in the section devoted to Manders Grand Star Menagerie.... so pleased about that :)

  Thanks for posting. I used the image (and cited the museum) for a natural history quiz where participants had to guess the age of different species.

  Has the feel of a market day... The post office was built c.1910.

  I like the lady with the pale coat and parasol, carefully navigating the horse apples.

  Hmmm ... the reverse-ish view was thought to be slightly earlier. See comments -
