Description
Leon was originally from Mexico and performed in the circus in the 1940s and 1950s . Though he was billed as the "Armless Wonder", he actually had misshapen arms with no hands which he hid underneath his clothes. In this pose, he is lighting a cigarette with his toes. (Although a later sideshow image, this is a scarce one of which I had not previously encountered.)
