Two unidentified performers with Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus waited for their show call outside the big top on July 27, 1950 in Lexington. These photos are part of a series of portraits Herald-Leader photographer John C. Wyatt produced while the circus was in town for a one-day, two-performance stand at the show grounds on Newtown Pike. The Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus Xtreme has been in Rupp Arena this weekend and will have two more shows Sunday, at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m.
