[ Autograph ] Ringling Brothers A lot of three checks, each signed by one of the famous Ringling Brothers, founders of the circus still bearing their name today. The checks are dated between 1912 and 1915,and one of which bears a portrait of the five Ringling brothers in profile. The rare checks each have a signature of a different brother:Charles Ringling 1863-1926 Personnel director of the circus who handled all logistical matters and was perhaps most important of the brothers, Alfred Ringling 1861-1919, the eldest brother, in charge ofdirecting performances, and Henry Ringling, an administrator who was given brother Otto's share after Otto's death. some punch cancels notaffecting signatures. A fine grouping!
