EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Jack Delano in September 1941, transports us back to the Vermont State Fair in Rutland during a time of great social and economic change. The image captures a moment where entertainment met curiosity, as a large banner proudly advertises the main sideshow attraction: Human Freaks. Intriguingly morbid yet undeniably fascinating, this sideshow promises an experience that challenges societal norms and pushes the boundaries of human existence. It offers spectators an opportunity to witness individuals who deviate from what is considered "normal" or "typical". Set against the backdrop of rural Vermont, this photograph serves as a reminder of how even small towns were not immune to the allure of spectacle during this era. As America was still recovering from the Great Depression and embracing Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal policies, such forms of recreation provided much-needed escapism for communities across the country. Delano's composition perfectly captures both the grandeur and grittiness of this sideshow advertisement. The worn-out banner flutters in the wind, its faded colors hinting at countless previous fairs it has adorned. Its presence evokes mixed emotions - curiosity mingled with unease - inviting viewers to contemplate society's fascination with those deemed different. Through Delano's lens, we are transported into a world where entertainment meets human curiosity; where banners like these once drew crowds eager for diversion from their everyday lives. This photograph stands as a testament to our enduring fascination with
