A collection of six drafts of articles about either the Clyde Beatty Circus or the Cole Brothers Combined Circus, likely all ranging from the mid-1940s to mid 1950s. It could be presumed that the collector of the item, Preston Sawyer, was partly or chiefly responsible for them, as he was a Santa Cruz Sentinel journalist at this time.
