Hello everyone! I´m working on a proyect and looking for a cool, circus-like typography.
Any suggestions? Hope you can help me! Thanks a lot.

Look in the Dan X. Solo collection. Dover sells 24 fonts for $15.00

Circus typography varies wildly by period. There are a few nice collections of circus posters online and you can dig up some more stuff in the Library of Congress online photo archive if you spend some time nailing the right search terms.

Try one of this FontMesa font. They allow for easy multicolor layering.

I suggest the Adobe Wood Type Fonts + the ornaments.
