Vintage Images of the Circus in Its Heyday

June 28, 2025 by Alison Campbell

This article was originally published on Parentinfluence.com

Ladies and gentlemen! Come one, come all! Step right up to the wonderful world of vintage circus images! We’re stepping back in time to explore the golden age of a classic American pastime: the circus. From majestic acrobats to charming (and slightly creepy) clowns, the circus holds a certain nostalgic charm of a bygone era. We’re exploring the way things once were and how they’ve changed over the decades of entertainment. So, without further ado, let’s dive right in. These vintage circus photos are a sure ticket to a thrilling good time.

A Moment of Downtime

This vintage circus photo of two performers is as sweet as it is fascinating. Circus performers almost always worked long hours to train, practice, and perform for delighted audiences across the country. This photo captured a moment of downtime for a clown and a “bally broad,” or a woman who worked as a dancer and performer in the circus. 

The woman is all glammed up, ready to perform that day’s set. The man dressed as a clown is also in full costume, as we can see from his full face of makeup. The woman seems to be taking notes while the clown looks on with a smile on his face. We can’t help but wonder what the relationship was between these two. Oftentimes, performers would fall in love with fellow performers and travel together as married couples.
