Horse-drawn Calliope in New Orleans
By Fritz Gellerman

Dave Morecraft of Peru, Indiana had his steam calliope (in a red wagon) at the Circus Festival in Sarasota, Florida in January. In the parade it was drawn by four mules provided locally. This may be the same one that appeared in New Orleans. If anyone wants to pursue it, he is a member of MBSI and his address appears in the membership directory.
