Daviso Martini: Juggling, Kicking Cups and Saucers to Head, Mouth Stick, Slackwire 1960s

Wow.. what a terrific act! I've certainly never heard of this man before and I can't find much written about him either. Here is the wonderful artist, Daviso Martini performing at the Togni family's Circo Heros in the 1960s.
I love it when we get to see such good close-ups of the performer's face and get to share his emotions. Brilliant stuff. He also does the classic, third time lucky trick and nails it. I bet that was deliberate. The ladies are his sisters, Desi and Loredana Martini – also seen in the second photo.

I also found this video of Daviso Martini, who apparently died very young at the height of his success.
