  • You'll never meet a character more colorful than Red Stuart. He's a true-blue-through-and-through carnie. Sometimes, he's rolling in the green. While other times, a black cloud seems to hang over his head. One thing is for certain, he would absolutely want you to HAVE A RED ONE
  • Don't doubt our veracity! We verily aver these Victorian variety amusements are available for viewing in THE STRAND
  • Don Boles (aka Rex Dane) was a midnight movie mentalist and magician in addition to being MENTAL AS ANYTHING

  • And much more!
