Aloha All,
A friend of mine from Michigan was friends and neighbors with a man named Art Stephans who was the president of the Ann Arbor Silent Film Society. Art gave my friend this film which is reportedly the oldest known recording/film of a juggler known to exist. It was filmed in France around 1907 - 1908. My friend has reproduced it digitally and has posted it on youtube for all to see. Ladies & Gentleman, I introduce to you for your enjoyment, "Maniac Juggler". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOb5Yq-mQsw Cap'n Mike Myrtle Beach, SC ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks for that! I love seeing the history of any performing art! I especially liked the juggling of the cats! That’s what cats are for! Juggling! LOL!!! The baby bit was killer!
