EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of pure joy and wonderment as a crowd gathers to watch the Performing Fleas in North East London, circa 1907. The scene unfolds on a bustling street corner, where the chalk-drawn sign "Wheres George, The Wonderful Fleas" clearly announces the unusual entertainment to come. The performer, dressed in a smart waistcoat and top hat, holds a clear glass jar in one hand and a long, thin cane in the other, ready to showcase his extraordinary talent. The fleas, tiny specks of life against the rough pavement, are seen jumping through hoops, climbing ropes, and even performing acrobatic tricks at the command of their human master. The onlookers, both young and old, lean in with wide-eyed amazement, some with hands shielding their faces in delight. The atmosphere is filled with laughter, excitement, and a sense of fun that transcends time. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of street entertainment during the 1930s. It is a reminder of a time when the unusual and the extraordinary could be found in the most unexpected places, and the simple pleasure of a live performance could bring people together in shared wonderment. The Performing Fleas may have long since vanished from the streets of North East London, but their spirit lives on in this enchanting image.
