Coming in the June 2004 issue of CARNIVAL :

  "Down Memory Lane" offers photos and information on Barber Bros. Shows, a carnival that provided the midway to fairs and events in Ohio and Indiana from 1947 to 1970. Catch the unusual and unique fire truck ride.

  Veteran show owner Ed Gregory, United Shows of America, passed away recently. In an interview conducted just prior to his death, he expressed his strong affection for the carnival business.

  Rides and people from Deggeller Attractions star in CARNIVAL's Out and About.

  It was the third time for Wade Shows at the San Antonio Livestock Show and Rodeo.  Find out what the carnival featured at this premier Texas event.

  Motordromes are a classic attraction seldom found on a carnival midway anymore. There is at least one unit out of Canada that has been performing at dates in the United States. The 2004 season will find it under new ownership.

  Manufacturer's Showcase spotlights Rapsure, Inc., a manufacturer of custom-built concession trailers. In addition, Fabbri Amusements has built a new style of gondola for the Kamikaze.

  Florida-based Belle City Amusements brought their fun and games to LaPorte, Indiana for the LaPorte County Fair.

  "Do You Remember" profiles the one-of-a-kind ride Telstar that was the creation of Jerry Barber who later founded Venture Rides.

  "On the Road in June" lists dozens of shows and the dates they will be playing in the month of June.

  The "History of Train Shows" continues with a history of the Hennies Bros. Shows, and, in particular, the role played by general agent J.C. McCaffery.

  In the Concessions section, Dennis Voss is a concessionaire who has worn several hats in his amusement industry career, and currently has donned one as a games concessionaire with a trio of trailer-mounted units.

  Also included in this issue are regular features: Midway Talk, Modeler's Corner, Classified Ads, and Direct From the Lots
