The company was started in 1919 when the circus created by James Anthony Bailey and P. T. Barnum was merged with the Ringling Brothers Circus. The Ringling brothers purchased the Barnum & Bailey Circus in 1907, but ran the circuses separately until they were finally merged in 1919. In 1957 John Ringling North changed the circus from using their own portable tents to using venues, such as sports stadiums that had the seating already in place. In 1967 Irvin Feld bought the circus, but in 1971 he sold it to Mattel. He bought it back in 1982.

It turned your normal TV set in to the internet, first by way of a dial-up connection and later on it was possible to connect on broadband with the newer hardware from MSNTV2 box which I was involved in the initial development of in usability sessions with Microsoft at the Microsoft campus in Mountain View CA. *From Jon Hammond International WebTV Pagebuilder site: Official Website of JON HAMMOND *As seen on MCTV THE JON HAMMOND SHOW *Excerpt: World renowned musician/composer host of The Jon Hammond Show.

You can see my WebTV email on the TV screen, this is how I did it for years - (while practicing accordion on my Excelsior Accordion): A really nice feature that was offered for the people who used the Philips Magnavox MAT-976 WebTV Plus box was the ability to publish websites with the Pagebuilder feature, I built my very first websites using Pagebuilders and they will all be disabled after Sept. 30, 2013 - here is the URL of my very first WebTV Pagebuilder website, it is online for only a short time more and I will put some of the content on this blog posting - this is the actual URL: http://community-4.webtv.net/laterent/JONHAMMOND/ Wikipedia for "MSN TV" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MSN_TV "MSN TV (formerly WebTV) is the name of both a thin client which uses a television for display (rather than a computer monitor), and the online service that supports it.
