Weary Willy by photohoot

Weary Willy

Emmett Kelly created a clown character based on the hobos of the depression. This is his wardrobe, self created. Once he put it on he became Weary Willy, the mute, never smiling, tramp.
The quintessential and classic clown. I think he and Marcel Marceau were solely responsible for bringing clowns and mimes into mainstream entertainment.

@phil_howcroft That's good.... photographs should make us emotional. But, be not sad. He is resting in peace now.
