Three years at CWM made me a real traditionalist, and I keep remembering Bob Parkinson saying, "I want the people to see what the circus used to be, not what it is today. That's what this site is about!

THE JIM WONG TROUPE


This is for all you Gil Gray Circus alumnae, pay attention because I'm NOT going to ask questions later because I won't know the answers either. As far as I know there were 4 Wong Brothers,George, Jim, Sung,(all deceased),& Lum. Here's the Jim Wong Troupe in the late '50's, doing the handstand on the arms is Jackie, Sung, the understander, and Lum, doing the handstand on the head are Jackie, & Carl's Uncles( Carl evidently has not joined the act yet).doing the plange is Joe,(connection with the family is unknown to me).
