Also you don’t specify if you are interested in a particular show. I can tell you that Russian (probably Cossacks) riders were performing with Ringling Bros. Circus in 1909 (before they were combined with Barnum & Bailey and the show traveled as far west as Arizona and California. However they did not appear in Nevada. Larry Kellogg Carol,

Specifically, the closest city/town to Reno, Nevada and in what year/s. Thanks, Carol Hi,
