Historical Notes
The most critical decision any owner had was the routing of the circus for the season; a good route meant a successful season financially. Route books document the season for 19th and 20th century circuses, recording not only dates, locations, and general attendance but behind the scenes of the show and listing the people who created the magical world of the circus. At The Ringling, a route book is defined as an account of a show’s route for a season that also includes additional information, specifically about staff. Listing of routes without personnel information may be considered to be route cards, route sheets, or day books.
Route books were published at the end of the circus season and describe the show's activities for that year. They were sold to employees of the show and were also often advertised and sold to circus fans. The name "route book" is derived from the listing of planned and/or contracted show engagements, listed by month and date, and state and city, a compilation known as the "route." Grander volumes included much more information about show activity. By their very name, they indicated and underscored the itinerancy of the circus. Route books typically list all the personnel for the show, usually broken down by department. Stories and photos of employees may also be included. For circuses, the route traveled was key to the financial success of the show. Route books, as their name suggests, also listed cities visited, date(s) played, railroads used, and number of miles traveled. Provenance for the collection varies; from circuses, circus employees, individuals, booksellers, antique dealers, and other middlemen. The route books are for a diverse range of circuses, including well known circuses like the Barnum & Bailey Circus

and the Ringing Bros Circus and what are now lesser known circuses such as Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers Circus, as well as other outdoor shows such as Pawnee Bill's Wild West and AL G. Barnes' Wild Animal Circus.
This list includes each unique route book title held by The Ringling. Some books may be held in duplicate. For further information on specific editions, please contact us directly at [email protected] or (941) 359-5700 x 1400.
