He and his brother were with Barnum and Bailey for over 20 years.Herbert was 36 inches tall.

    Jess Willard successfully defended the heavyweight championship against Frank Moran on 25 March 1916. There's some film footage of the fight that's been put into a news reel format on YouTube.

    Amazing! Thank you jschumacher for finding this footage. Beginning of the video shows off the spectacular architecture of the 1890 structure built by architect Stanford White.
