  The Rutland State Fair girlie show lasted into the early 80's before it was shut down. It became extremely raunchy towards the end of its run (even I was shocked!)

  Great image,Depth and expression of the human condition travling with a Carni in the 40's was a harsh life.The detail in these images brings to life so well those days of doubt and mystery.Very powerful.

  The World of Mirth was a 50-car railroad carnival that traveled the Eastern Seaboard from 1933 to 1963. It employed 470 people.

• ElectroSpark said:

  Pardon me, but is this where one could possibly attain glee as well?

  I wonder how many of the boys in the picture served in WWII

• Eric Schmeric said:

  Considering most of them look like they're about twelve, and the picture was taken in 1941, my guess is zero.
