Revue der Illusionen is likely the only sideshow in the world to be commemorated in an HO plastic model by a commercial company.
The renowned German model company Faller has been producing models of fun-fair rides and and one time sold a reproduction of the Revue der Illusionen show theater.
The model is no longer being produced and are now sought after collectors items.
We have a few that are being offered as incentives for the crowd-fund we have set up for the show. The crowd-fund is for repairs and maintenance of the show as well as going towards a new truck which is needed because of the new strict European environmental laws. When you donate to the crowd-fund project you not help keep this classic style of entertainment alive you can also get a nifty incentive gift for your trouble. The Faller model is just one of the gifts.
Take a look at the crowd-fund site here: http://www.gofundme.com/europeansideshow
