Original vintage promotional photograph of an early circus finger-balancing act billed as LOTHAR.

Lothar Curt Alfred Geyer was born Jan 23, 1935 in Suhl, Germany. In 1952 Lothar came to the United states with Fritz Furcht's "Frielanis Bicycle Troupe", to perform with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus.

While the troupe was working with the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros. Circus, Geyer purchased the "Finger Stand" props of performer Joe Galasso and began working on his own solo balancing act.

Geyer's "One Finger Stand Act" debuted and was featured on the on the Clyde Beatty Cole Bros. Circus. Lothar in his tuxedo and Jill in her beautiful gowns added a touch of elegance and class wherever they performed.

Photograph measures 8 x 10 inches and is in excellent condition except for staple holes at the corners which shows this was probably used as a promotional photograph. There are no bends, tears, or creases and the image is sharp and has strong tones with good contrast and clarity.
