The Jones Bros. bought this ex-Barnum & London 1883 tableau cage and converted it into a tableau by 1915. Christy augmented it with an additional pair of statues and made it into a tribute to "beauty." The Texas showman rebuilt most of his vehicles, standardizing on wheels, brakes, etc. Too bad the Depression knocked him out, but he became a popular politician, a long time mayor.
