Pick of The Net
Welcome to ‘Pick of the Net’ a new regular post where I share the top videos I’ve enjoyed on the net during the week (or in the past! 😉 ) for your viewing pleasure.
This week I’ve chosen 3 vintage circus or vaudeville videos:
1.The Dollies on La Piste aux étoiles.
La Piste aux étoiles was a French television program , featuring a circus show, mostly recorded at the Cirque D’Hiver in Paris and at the Cirque Pinder.

3) Russian Circus Training

*British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people
Hope you enjoyed those little gems,
Peace & respect,
Hamish
