  This auction is for four excellent conditions (see pictures) BankAmericard Circus Posters (a complete set of four).  They were printed in 1960 for a credit card promotional giveaway.  The original posters, which inspired the BankAmericard reprints, were created between 1894 and 1925.  The printing by the Circus World Museum is solid and extraordinary, and the colors and graphics are bright and vivid. The subject matter is historic and depicts a bygone era when traveling circus shows were a wonder to behold!
