TEENY THE CLOWN AND FRIENDS
Teeny the Clown receives the attention of the small fry who are
seen boarding the popular Rotary “Train” which made regular
trips through town during the King Crab Festival. The jitney and
flat cars, furnished by Donnelley and Acheson, and made into cars,
served as a big attraction to the kids, many of whom made frequent
trips Saturday and Sunday. Teeny accompanied the train on many
of the trips, amusing the passengers who delighted in his commen
taries, grimaces, and antics. Photo by Ameigh
