Circus and carnival Ballyhoo : sideshow freaks, jaggers and blade box queens

Stencell, A. W.
Toronto : ECW Press, 2010

From Lentini the three-legged man and Siamese twins to equipment caravans and big top architects, this captivating collection lifts the striped curtain to reveal the larger-than-life world of circuses, carnivals, and freak shows in post-World War II America. Copious never-before-seen photographs, in-depth historical research, and insightful interviews with former sideshow employees illustrate the development of the circus sideshow, the roles of key groups—the freaks, working acts, managers, talkers—and the importance of the grift.

Girl show : into the canvas world of bump and grind

Stencell, A. W.

A journey back through time to the glory years of traveling adult entertainment. Many of these photos have never been seen before, and no one has published a book exclusively devoted to the women (and men) who performed in girl shows. Included are 200 photos from 1900 onwards in A. W. Stencell's book about this cultural phenomenon. Covered are girl shows' European origins, their American developments, their heyday after World War II, and their ultimate demise in the face of men's magazines, strip clubs, and x-rated videos.

High Grass Circus

Ianzelo, Tony ; Schioler, Torben ; Stencell, A. W.
Montréal : ONF, c1976, 2010

A ticket to entertainment at the Royal Brothers' Circus--the only Canadian tent circus. Filmed during a hectic summer season, with the Big Top up, in transit, or being erected, it vividly captures the 24-hour-a-day brand of circus magic and observes both the people and mechanics behind it. Like the circus itself, it hovers between comedy, sentimentality and the grotesque. [editor summary]
