I have a fascination for people that exerience the life in a carnival. Carnival life people may say that these were wondeful times because of the friendships made thorughout their lives. But at the same, there also was abuse.
I am fascinated with Fedor Jeftichew, also known as Jo-Jo the Dog-Faced boy (1868 - 1904). Mr. Jeftichew was a Russian Sideshow performer. But there are others that have traveled the carnival circuit, such as Stephan Bibrowskie, also known as Lionel the Lion-faced Man. |
