abstract:Super Circus was an American television program which aired live on Sunday afternoons from 5 to 6pm Eastern Time from 1949-1956 on ABC. The show originally was produced in Chicago, but production later moved to New York City.
The video, filmed between 21 January and 15 February last year, showed the Asian elephant chained by one foot and one hind leg in a barn on Bobby Roberts SuperCircus in Polebrook.
They're the kind of personalities that pop up in American public life from time to time, making the U.S. seem as much an oversized circus as a super-power.
