Eighth Ward Camping Club's Comic Costumes

A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of be a clown (clowns, people dressed as clowns, or people clowning around).

Banner (upper left): "8th Ward Camping Club."

I haven't been able to determine where the Eighth Ward Camping Club was located or why its members were dressed up in clown costumes and other amusing getups. Considering that there's a fellow behind the group who's delivering a tray full of mugs filled with beer, I'm sure that they're enjoying themselves. See a cropped version of the photo for a closer look at the costumes.

The type of Azo stamp box (with four corner triangles pointing up) printed on the other side of this photo postcard suggests a possible date that may be as early as 1904 to 1918.

What a fabulous image, Alan! I love the guy in the white hat who looks exactly like he's gesturing (and saying sardonically in a Jackie Gleason voice) "Getta load of them!".

Another exceptional theme photo, Alan. A very rare Kaiser clown in the bunch.
