The orange set is really rare I think. It looks great, and yours is in beautiful condition. The old acrobat acts are great, and I think that may be the only circus horse act with black horses, they are usually white. Thanks for sharing these great photos

French:
"What is the meaning of La Bastide?
bas·​tide. (ˈ)ba-¦stēd. plural -s. 1. : a village or town in medieval France built especially for defense and usually laid out according to a definite geometric plan." Wikipedia
Of Frankish origin and related to the German word basteln which ironically can refer to making things out of paper. The famous Bastille has common origin with bastide. I like that basteln can also mean to tinker/mess with something. source: wiktionary

At first glance I thought it might refer to some other word meaning something really difficult.  ;D
