GRANDPOP

The story of my grandfather as told by my father through his website Stowe Vintage.

“FRANK WARREN TRICKER. Born in 1913, and raised an orphan, Frank Tricker, was mainly self educated and developed wide ranging interests throughout his life. Fascinated by show business and a love of physical culture he developed a hand balancing act, finding partners at local gymnasiums. He started to travel the United States extensively, performing at county fairs, night clubs, and appearing at many movie theaters. Back then many movie theaters would feature live performers between movies.”

My grandmother, Louise, was also part of the act. As well as my father when he was born.
