So nice to see some respectful clown-based content.
I have some too...😂❤
My sister actually graduated from clown college in the early eighties!!
I was never afraid of clowns and actually find them quite beautiful, especially older ones. It's nice being able to find a video about clowns that's not all spooky and scary. At the end of the day, they're just normal people with makeup on and a well-functioning funny bone. 🎪
I personally knew Micheal Polakovs who was known as COCO The Clown. He was inducted Into the Clown Hall Of Fame, & saw his display in this video . He was my cousin's grandfather, so I knew him very well . He designed the Ronald McDonald's makeup , & attire as people knows him today ,he also played Ronald McDonald In the 1st 5 nationally aired commercials for McDonald's as Ronald McDonald In the makeup & attire known today . Michael's wife Hazel still owns the original Ronald McDonald outfit MIchael passed away in 2009. He was with Ringling Brothers circus for many many years
Frank Dalton Coco was one of the very first clowns I had ever heard about from my dad. I used to love watching old clips of him and hearing stories about times my dad saw him as a kid. By far one of my all time favorites!
Who do you get in touch with if you have a lot of old clown statues figurines
I'd think John Wayne Gacy did more to damage clowns' image than Stephen King.
Love it! I actually met a professional clown at his house in Greece, NY. He took clowning very seriously and worked for Shriner's Circus.
rochester ny shout out!!! grew up seeing more shrine circus than ringling

Upstate and Northern New York represent!
A lot of my clown training came from a friend of my family that is a Shriner clown. They are great guys all of them. 😊
There's a wonderful point to all this- clowns are just people with jobs underneath all that makeup. Stinks that people have, over time, come to misunderstand them so much.
I had a clown duo come to my elementary school once and explain clowning. It was very interesting to see them perform and them explain their art and the work that goes into it. This brought back memories.
AT LEAST ITS NOT THE DOLL HALL OF FAME
Jeeez Jacob, look at your subscribers! You've been a busy 🐝 bee ! Congrats bro 👍🏼👍🏼 Watched & Liked 👍🏼👍🏼
Great little place, I normally hate clowns but this has changed my view. Wonderful content. Keep up the good work.
Love that you had a tour guide for the last video and this one! I love hearing the back stories
I had a doll when I was a kid my mom picked up at a flea market that was the hobo type clown. It even had a 4 o'clock shadow with a cigar stub sticking out it's mouth. It looked very old. I use to chase my nefew around with it .He was terrified of it. Such fond memories. That ed Sullivan skit was funny. Those poor dogs tho. So that's where the term slap stick comedy came from. Cool upload
Creepy clowns can be terrifying, even moreso than Milton Berle in drag, but this clownly presentation was quite entertaining & didn't weird me out at all. A nice break from poor, dead, stuffed woodland creatures & broken-spirited circus animals. I loved the costumes, great colors, & the big goofy shoes esp. As a child, I was an avid watcher of "The Red Skelton Show," the quintessential cuddly-sad hobo-clown u just couldn't help but love - so funny, w/such talent - an all-around great guy & amazing performer - much more preferable to me than those evil, threatening, pumpkin-smashing bully clowns popping up on ppl's security cams all over the place last fall - those I would run from if I ever saw 'em clomping dn my street! I still can't believe u went to that abandoned lair last yr in search of the kid-scaring renegade clown posse all by yrself!
This was so hard to watch,I'm terrified of clowns, it's was enjoyable tho. Thanks for what you do to make so many happy!
Really enjoyed this serious appreciation of clowns & their history. But still, Mr Bagger, I wouldn't spend the night in this museum. How can the clown image be rehabilitated? Love from England to Mr. Bagger & my fellow Baggees, Mrs JM X
I hate clowns but I found this extremely interesting. I had no idea there were different types of clowns.
Awesome..gotta go!
Jacob, I want to say I truly appreciate what You do. We get to see things like this, that most of us would never see. thanks so much!
Wow that was Epic, Jacob your Carpetbagger suitcase would fit right in with the Marc Anthony collection of props
Absolutely fascinating and horrifying at the same time! I was glad to see Skelton included in the collection. He was a great Clown artist as well as a clown! Great vlog Jacob!
This was really nice Jacob ! The quality of your content has hit some extreme highs lately!!!! The guests are great adding to the history and info of the exhibits and the places are so interesting. I'm not even a fan of clowns ( thanks Mr. King) , but I think I am now!
+judy Osborne glad to convert someone
from now on Jacob, you cant call a clown creepy without justifying it.
I sense you could tell early on in the tour not to be overly sarcastic with the "creepy clown" stuff that is so popular nowadays. I take it the proprietor had a career as a circus clown.
+Ricky Berkey he did
The hall of nightmares lol
How can anyone thumbs this down. This is great. I have to admit I like unusual content. You've done several I've really liked.
One of the reasons I don't watxh Adam as much is his overt obsession with Disney. It's boring...the rides the eating..one big...big yawn.
THIS is very cool. thanks
Great video, again really interesting to watch and Trevor really was a mine of information. Brilliant !!!. Thanks Jacob & Trevor xx
You're welcome!
@@trevorwhittow6777 You're married to Julie Mooseburger right? If not I apologize.
Do more circus things I love them
I debated on watching this because clowns scare the crap out of me but this was actually cool to see.
Dapper Dan was a great clown.He retired and left Allentown, Pa. And moved with his wife to florida.We love you and miss you Dapper Dan.☺You shall forever be in our hearts.Thanks for all the years you made us laugh.We miss you and ur invisible dog you always took for a walk.Also ur rubber chicken.Thanks for the memories Dapper Dan.We all love and miss you! ☺☺☺☺☺☺
Thank you so much for this! It was great to some of Coco Jr.'s props and costume. I met him a few times here in Fl in the 70's and 80's. I can't remember your guides name but , there are a few videos of his work on the TH-cam and he is hilarious.
Bro, no lie, you are the only videos that get me through Wednesday. I can listen to you talk and sleep before work and I have dreams of really awesome museums when I do so. You’re living the life. Thanks for your content!
I am a clown, when I'm not a zombie, I have total respect for the actual circus arts and I incorporate as much of the traditional routines into my act as I can when working the queue lines at the attraction I work at. Admittedly, my character borders a bit on the creepy side.
How interesting Jacob. Clowns seem to be in the past now and do have creepy connotations these days. OZ 🔆🔆🔆
I don't like clowns but that was really interesting and kind of eye opening too, Thanks!
My favorite clown is red skeleton he was the hobo clown ))
also i think of krusty and send in the clowns lol
As a member of C.O.A.I. thank you for this post.
Clowns really, really freak me out.
London has an odd relationship with clowns - there's an annual service in a church in the Hackney area where they commemorate the father of clowning, Joseph Grimaldi, and you can actually visit his tomb which is in an unassuming city park a mile or so away in Islington. I've been to both even though they scare me to death!
+Peter Stean please tell me they do the church service in clown make up
The Carpetbagger oh yes - there are *lots* of clowns in the pews 0_o
CB I love your vlog content. Just discovered your U Tube site. I subscribed and hit the bell
if you are headed to visit Coffeyville you can go through Sedan. Just some ideas for a road trip
Another awesome video...some great history in there.... Cheers
I love clowns!! Thank you so much for this🎉
What where those heads used for!!!???!
As a Disney nerd (if you mean the Disney heads), I'm willing to vote there may be a chance those were used at the original Disneyland attraction, Dumbo's Circus. There used to be a real circus right by where the Flying Dumbos are that operated several times a day and it's rumored it sometimes featured Disney characters. But that's all I can come up with. The only other Disney stage show that may have required something like that that I know of was the Icecapades and their masks didn't look like that.
Bo88y Beretta Most masks were used for costumes, not really for preforming, if you were a clown that was for decoration not for talking and everything you usually wear a costume and the masks.
Welp, time to put Jacob in full costume next meetup!
Nice video! Looking forward to see more!
Honestly you are a great interviewer, you should do it a lot more, i seriously could see you on radio.
That slapstick looked like the paddle my elementary principle used on us if we got in trouble back in the 70's...it worked to cause it kept us in line and respectable towards our elders
👋 watching older videos 👍 and commenting 😊

found a souvenir from south of the border place where u went it was in a thrift store over here long way from its place lol .

I hate clowns ‼️ ,yet. Enjoy watching these type of videos 😂
i love this channel sm
It really was not that creepy. Actually quite interesting to hear some history of clowning.
Well , well, Carpetbagger, you certainly don't "clown around",when it comes to finding odd and unusual places!! Pardon the pun,CB..!!Good vid,champ!👍🙌🎭
Very creepy for me, but very cool
Right?! Super creepy.
7:04 the big clown looks like the one someone donated to the clown motel that omargoshtv went to.
Did Emmet Kelly make those clown paint by number art? Looks like his stuff!😁 love them!
saw this on american pickers, awesome
We were gonna send my daughter to Ringling Bros Barnum Bailey Clown College.... That's all she wanted to be... But Alas, it went outta business a few years before she graduated 😘 ( that's a secret )
Clowns just scare me, but a great video my friend!
+Sarah Black I appreciate it
I had a character hobo clown porcelain doll as a kid. I never thought it was weird or creepy, it wasn't till I grew up and started having sleep over that friend started telling me that both clowns and porcelain dolls are creepy 🤷♀️ I had a couple of classic girly girl porcelain dolls, a bride who was my second favorite, a classic clown and my hobo clown. Hobo clown still makes me smile whenever I remember him.
I'd like to put this on my places to visit list. I wonder are there similar tourist spots?
yeah the Emmit Kelly Museum in Sedan Kansas
Welcome to Wisconsin, feel free to come back anytime
JEDI KISS Rock I'm still trying to escape it.
Really cool!
That’s awesome would love to visit this place
He's correct. Drag has been around a looong time
I love this! I may have to drive the 3 hours to visit
cool this was posted on my birthday :)
loved this vid
1 day,
I’ll be there.
Yes. Crypy. 😀
Excellent!
I love this
OMG who knew all this It's AWESOME 👋 THANK YOU
Bunch of clowns...
Someone should really donate some plexiglass cases and counter display cases. His pieces are priceless. They shouldn't be able to be handled by patrons...
Every time some mentions Clown College I think of Bart's question to Homer "Clown College or Barber College?
Fascinating insights!
Did your tour guide mention Larry Harmon, the 2nd Bozo (and for a long, long time the most famous Bozo, due to his outright purchase of the rights to the character from Capitol Records)? He was the Bozo I remember from childhood...
Extremely interesting
I came out a little less uneasy about clowns. Never was scared of them. Just entertainers. They can be pretty cool people if you remember they're people. Female clowns are pretty cute though. Clowns can be pretty funny too.
Check out the train museum in Wisconsin
I know some of the clowns that is showed there. there is grandma the clown (the red dress with pearl necklace), frosty little (Between grandma the clown and emment kelly), and some other clowns i don't remember the names of
Very scary indeed
*Send In The Clowns... Much love to all the good times.* ✨
Cool interesting video 👍🙂
I grew up on Bozo & Captain Kangaroo. Those WERE the good ol days. Later on my big sister loved Emmett Kelly & I loved Red Skelton. Jackie Gleason's sad clown too. They were never scary clowns, they were friendly & brought out compassion in people.
The PC Term for Homeless Person is "Domestically Challenged" in fact many Police Departments require their Officers to address them as so.
+Rosey H that's funny
Great video god bless
Cool. Never been there.
I'm so happy they have a clown hall of fame :O)
Cool!!!
not fan clowns I blame Stephen King lol this very interesting
Can you stay at the clown motel that's next to a haunted cemetery in Nevada and the lizzy ax murder house
Awww. Happy The hobo. R.i.p
Let’s laugh and make fun of all the clowns, hobo clowns,cross dressing clowns, every clown. They are clowns to make us laugh.
I love bozo the clown r.i.p bozo
