STRAINING FOR TRAINING ! - British Pathe
Does anyone know who the liberty presenter is or who the high school riders are. The short footage at the end is interesting. It looks like a bunch of ponies doing a bunch of things all at once, much like what had been depicted on old circus programs.

Wonderful Wade. Need Sue Lenz to tell us who these great people are. Just great. Liberty is fabulous, plus high school. I not that these kindergarden pony acts were quite popular in europe and routines were similar. Lot of great training involved. Show us more. thanks. johnny
Col. Herriott,
What I found interesting about the "kindergarden pony acts" was the fact that it all went on at once. In looking at old posters, I just assumed that one thing would happen, the animals would leave, and a new group would do something else. I thought they were just depicted all together on the old lithographs to give folks an idea of what all they would see. Old circus lithographs were deceptive for sure, but in this case, they showed the real deal. Thanks for giving this type of act a name. I never knew what to call it.
My best to you and Mary Ruth,
Wade
I think it is in SARRASANI-building in Dresden before the war !
