Description: Fisher-Price created the Play Family Circus after the #991 Circus Train became a hot seller in 1973. This set reused most of the #991's accessories, along with 6 new exclusive trapeze parts. Apparently, it must not have sold as well; the Circus Train was manufactured until 1986, while the Play Family Circus died a decade earlier. As usual, the hard to find piece is the most nondescript: the yellow H-shaped connector, plenty of which most likely got thrown out the minute they were separated from the set.
