Inscribed Photograph Signed
Born without arms Leak became a popular circus sideshow freak performing with P.T. Barnum's troupe alongside General Tom Thumb. Scarce IPS 2�" X 4�" n.p. 1872 May 18. Very good. Nice closeup portrait with just enough torso visible to show her armless condition. Beneath she boldly signs "Ann E. Leak / Born without arms" in a fair script -- written by holding the pen in her toes and in a surprisingly neat respectable hand so to speak. On the verso she adds: "Presented to / Mrs. E.P. Smith / By / Ann E. Leak / Born without arms / Georgia. / Age 30 yrs / May 18 1872." Very scarce. unknown
