He has created this miniature circus in a 1:50 and 1:20 scale. The small circus owns more than 500 different vehicles and more than 600 small animals. Four large tents with circus rings and all the other trimmings were made by Mr. Guth, who was also assisted by his son Joachim, 17, pictured here too. A multitude of small elector-motors speed the animal and artist's groups thus presenting completely the genuine impression of the circus atmosphere. All the parts that make up this circus made by Mr. Guth or his son themselves, they also painted them in a very loving way.
