This photo is from 1954. Why was Gilbert Houcke not with Krone in 54, if he was there in 52 and 61? These unique pedestals look familiar, but at the moment I can't recall who's they were.

Wade,
The unknown trainer in circus Krone in 1954 is Vojtech Trubka.
Greetings,
Rob.
This man presented tigers and polar bears trained by Alfred Court. Later Knie's tigers at Knie (47) and Blackpool (48) and also Knie's mixed tiger/lion group also at Blackpool think 1952. From '34 until '39 he also worked in a zoo in France. In 1953 he was at Medrano I think also with Knie's wild animals.
Thomas,
What do you mean, "I think?" That's an awful lot of "I thinks" for a high line cage act researcher of your stature and fame. LOL

Wade,
Just a mistake of Dutch/English.
A cage act historian of my stature is sure of these facts !

Thomas,
Very, very good my jonge vriend. LOL I knew for sure it wasn't an alibi, but instead an honest mistake. LOL
