Description:

Clyde Beatty, an American cat trainer popular from his debut in the 1920s until his death in 1965, used a rough, fighting style in the cage; his act was punctuated with the cracks of his whip and shots fired from his blank gun. He subjugated as many as 40 “black-maned African lions and Royal Bengal tigers” at one time.. Beatty purchased a circus in 1945 that in 1958 bought the Cole Bros. name and formed the Clyde Beatty–Cole Bros. Circus, which was the largest tent show on the road in the United States at that time.
