Description

ca. 1880 s CIRCUS SIDESHOW freak MIDGET SIBLING S COMMODORE FOOTE & FAIRY QUEEN ca. 1880 s CIRCUS SIDESHOW freak MIDGET SIBLING S COMMODORE FOOTE & FAIRY QUEEN Circa 1880s Antique Cabinet Card Photograph; Depiction of circus sideshow midget siblings. Identification in negative is lightly visible at bottom and reads; "Commodore Foote & Sister". Research indicates that Charles Nestel and his sister were midget siblings from Fort Wayne, Indiana. They performed with P.T. Barnum's sideshow and also the American Lilliputian Opera Company. I've sold several images of little people over the years but this the first time I"ve encountered this one depicting Commodore Foote as an older gentleman. Approximate mount size is 4-1/4" x 6-1/2". Condition: light surface soiling, occasional dings, scuffs, edge wear, and foxing spots. Please see photos for additional condition review.
