The Prince of Humbug
In 1871 PT Barnum started the "Grand Traveling Museum, Menagerie, Caravan and Hippodrome". In 1881 James Bailey and Branum merged to become "Barnum and Bailey Circus". In 1919 that was merged with the "Ringling Brothers Circus". The film "The Greatest Show on Earth" which featured the Ringling Brothers Barnum and Bailey Circus, was released in 1952.

Ringling Brother and Barnum& Bailey Circus
It was an Arkansas newspaper that called Dan Rice's circus "the greatest show on earth" back in the 19th century. (Rice's circus was active between the 1830's and the 1860's.) Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey use the phrase today to describe their circus, which is currently the largest in America. Barnum's first show was back in 1871, well after Rice had packed it in.
Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey Circus
The musical "Barnum" opened in the West End on April 23, 1981, at the Royal Theatre, now known as the Gielgud Theatre. The show, which starred Michael Crawford in the title role, celebrated the life of the famous circus showman P.T. Barnum.
He didn't invent anything, but was a scam artist. He produced a show/circus that was very popular,but the circus was not something new. The Romans had circuses thousands of years before PT Barnum.
A Trade show can be business to business selling or business to consumer selling. Typically business to business. Consumer show is business to consumer selling/marketing I have been to a lot of shows and wouldn't be nearly successful if I hadn't done a ton of research first.
P.T. Barnum was known as the "Greatest Showman on Earth" for his successful circus and entertainment ventures in the 19th century. He was a prominent figure in the world of show business and widely recognized for his innovative approach to entertainment.
In spite of the use of this slogan ("the greatest show on earth") by Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey, an Arkansas newspaper applied the phrase in describing Dan Rice's circus, which was active from the 1830's to the 1860's. That's about half a century before Barnum & Bailey came to be.
