Description

The first of The Flying Wallendas

Stunt man (1905-1978) and founder of The Flying Wallendas, a world-renowned daredevil circus group known for its high wire acts. His troupe toured with the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus before going freelance. Wallenda plummeted to his death at age 73, when he attempted to walk between two 10-story buildings in windy conditions. Vintage glossy 10 x 8 photo of the Flying Wallendas in a three man pyramid, signed in red ink by Karl. In fine condition, with scattered creasing, some irregular adhesion to the signature, and a stray ink mark in the right border. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
