<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 68421, member: 44&quot;]I haven&#039;t found out anything about her; however, found the same card pic in the digital collection of Syracuse University. The one at SU is 10&quot; x 15&quot;. It is in the &quot;Ronald G. Becker collection of Charles Eisenmann photographs&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>&quot;More than one thousand photographs of 19th century sideshows and circuses, most by photographer Charles Eisenmann or his successor Frank Wendt, the remainder by unknown photographers. Most of the photographs depict the physical abnormalities of humans and animals featured at these shows. Subjects include P.T. Barnum, the P.T. Barnum Firm (Barnum and Bailey Circus), and Tom Thumb. Also included are Becker’s research notes, an 1865-1868 run of <i>The New York Clipper</i> (forerunner of <i>Billboard Magazine</i>), and various print (broadsides and posters) and non-print circus memorabilia.&quot;</p><p><br /></p><p>Here the pic with info below it:</p><p><a href="http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/eisenmann&amp;CISOPTR=2482&amp;CISOBOX=1&amp;REC=1" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/eisenmann&amp;CISOPTR=2482&amp;CISOBOX=1&amp;REC=1" rel="nofollow">http://digilib.syr.edu/cdm4/item_viewer.php?CISOROOT=/eisenmann&amp;CISOPTR=2482&amp;CISOBOX=1&amp;REC=1</a></p><p>A Search engine of the collection is on the right of this page:</p><p><a href="http://library.syr.edu/find/scrc/collections/diglib/eisenman.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://library.syr.edu/find/scrc/collections/diglib/eisenman.php" rel="nofollow">http://library.syr.edu/find/scrc/collections/diglib/eisenman.php</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Explanation of the collection:</p><p><a href="http://library.syr.edu/digital/guides/b/becker_eisenmann.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://library.syr.edu/digital/guides/b/becker_eisenmann.htm" rel="nofollow">http://library.syr.edu/digital/guides/b/becker_eisenmann.htm</a></p><p>The inventory is on that same page.
