Lion Tamer Stool

I bought this stool(unpainted of course) at a garage sale this spring and just figured out what to do with it-it will be another addition to my circus collection! And I only paid $1.00 for it!

    Isn't it great what you can get for a dollar?

    I have a thing for circuses too. I love to get my hands on some vintage circus things...but it seems rare because I hardly ever see any.
    Check out the site of Chris Angel Mind freak in Las Vegas...incredible costumes.
