The most comprehensive collection of equipment and souvenirs from ice-skating shows sits in an unprepossessing brick photo studio in Minneapolis. Costumes, skates, props, dolls, jewelry, spoons, posters, programs, tickets and even popcorn containers are neatly packed into boxes and binders. They date to the 1910s, when nightclubs started installing minirinks and appreciative audiences would carry star skaters through the streets after shows.
