Russell Bros. Circus

I have been told this is a picture of a young Col. John Milton Herriott taken in 1903, when he was a Private. I think that is a wrong date, because John Milton is older then that, and the trailer in the background appears to be from the 1940's. Any insight?

John,
I didn't think so, that's why I was asking. You are closer to 118, 119 aren't you? Hub told me you were a year younger then he is and he's 120. What a pair of classic's you and Hub are. LOL Did Hub get out on the road with his new pick out pony? He said after that last deal, he wasn't going to let you "help" this time. LOL A year ago when I talked to him he had costumes, music, light cues, script and all training finished, and was just arranging for transport for the pony. Push came to shove, he was going to build a stall in the bathroom of his travel trailer to get the tour started. LOL When you next speak to Hub, give him my very best, and to you the same, Col.
