    Wolf Wild Wolves Escape Circus Sangers Astley's Amphitheatre 1880s Antique Print
    s-l1600.
    s-l1600.
    s-l1600.

    You are bidding on an original antique print from an 1880s illustrated journal.

    It depicts a dramatic scene, as wolves from a London circus escape. Handlers try to control them with canes.

    The wolves were part of a circus called Sanger's Ampitheatre (previously Astley's Amphitheatre).

    It measures approximately 10.75 x 7.75 inches (27 x 20 cm). The picture measures about 9.2 x 6.5 inches. There is a caption below.

    The caption reads: Wild Wolves in London -- An Incident at Sanger's Ampitheatre.

    The page is in excellent condition for its age. There is text/photos on the back of the print. See scan for an accurate view of the condition.
