"Weary Willie Day celebrates a unique clown character known for his sad, downcast look. Unlike typical clowns who are cheerful and brightly dressed, Weary Willie has a somber, reflective expression that sets him apart.
This day honors the art of clowning and the impact it has on making us laugh while also invoking deeper emotions.
It reminds us that even in tough times, like those during the Great Depression when Weary Willie first appeared, there’s a place for humor and empathy in our lives.
This special day is not just about one clown but also about recognizing the broader art of clowning. Weary Willie’s character, created by Emmett Kelly, breaks the stereotype of the happy clown and offers a different, poignant perspective."

I still have my Weary Willie riding in his blue car on a shelf behind me in my computer room and I still have the Emmett Kelly Jr. book in my bookcase, right next to my Red Book of Jung's, which are nearly both the same length and width, but Jung's Red Book is a lot deeper:-)
