#sideshows

Got a new animation app that allows me to key in audios so this is my first test run on it. AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!! Three days later and I finished this six second clip from Cape Fear episode of the Simpsons. We’re gonna ignore so of the mild human error of it lol

Stephan Bibrowski, also known as "Lionel the Lion-Faced Man," was born in 1890 in Poland with a rare condition called hypertrichosis, which caused his body and face to be covered in thick hair. His mother believed that his condition was caused by witnessing his father being attacked by a lion before his birth. She gave him away shortly after he was born.

By the time he was four, Bibrowski had been discovered by a German showman and began performing in sideshows across Europe. Eventually, he moved to the United States, where he gained fame in the circus world, particularly with Barnum & Bailey Circus. Bibrowski was known to be gentle, intelligent, and well-spoken, often surprising audiences with his fluency in multiple languages and his polite demeanor.

Ballyhoo men flock to Coney Island, ca. 1922. Performers outside theatres take advantage of large crowds to entertain and earn.
