  • Circus Guide Book
    Found within the Stowell Stebbins scrapbook, this Circus Guide Book is inscribed with the name "Miss Catherine Clarke". To illustrate the upcoming events, a red clothed clown appears to burst through the guide's cover. An artistic signature (Yanning?) is printed in the illustration's corner. The contents of the book exhibit advertisements for local businesses, the "Minstrel and Vaudeville Show," and the Chicago tent company hired by the circus. Amongst the advertisements are descriptions of circus features, including clowns. An illustration of a clown in blackface accompanies the description.
  • Two Tickets for Section B
    Two yellow tickets to the Union Circus, presumably for a show in the Big Top. Both tickets are labeled for Section B, Row 9. These particular items were adhered to a scrapbook belonging to former University of Michigan student, Stowell Stebbins . Written around the tickets are the names "Catherine Clark" and "S.C.S. (not including the [illegible])".
