Huge Circus Archive Now Available Online!

Freaks! Acrobats! Jugglers! Clowns! (And Much Much More!)

A huge collection and archive of circus, sideshow, and related posters (over 8000 total) is now available online, thanks to www.circusmuseum.nl

It is the largest collection of circus posters in the Netherlands, and is now available for viewing (free of charge)

There is also a store, where you can buy re-prints of posters that strike your fancy. (Prices are in Euros)

The entire site is in Dutch (without an English Translation at this time), but you can pretty much figure it out. If you have problems, try using the free translation service babelfish.altavista.com
