EDITORS COMMENTS
Miss Annie Jones, also known as "The Bearded Lady," was a remarkable woman who captivated audiences during the late 19th century as a popular attraction in P.T. Barnum's American Circus. Born Annie Jones Elliot in 1865, she was an Englishwoman who, due to a rare condition, grew a full beard and mustache covering most of her face. By the age of 33, she had become a sensation, touring with Barnum's "Greatest Show on Earth" and "Barnum & Bailey Circus." The Illustrated London News captured this intriguing image of Miss Jones in 1898, showcasing her unique appearance and the curiosity she inspired. Her facial hair, which was thick and dark, contrasted sharply with her delicate features and feminine attire. The photograph offers a glimpse into the world of human oddities and paranormal curiosities that drew large crowds to Barnum's shows. Miss Jones' bearded appearance was a source of fascination for many, and she was often the subject of both awe and ridicule. However, she embraced her role as a circus attraction and reportedly earned a good living from her performances. The photograph serves as a reminder of a time when the unusual and the extraordinary were celebrated, and when individuals like Miss Annie Jones could find a place in the entertainment world. Despite the passing of time, the image of Miss Annie Jones, "The Bearded Lady," continues to intrigue and inspire, offering a glimpse into the world of human oddities and the curiosity that drives us to explore the unknown. This photograph, taken by the Illustrated London News in 1898, remains a fascinating piece of history, showcasing the unique and captivating life of a remarkable woman who defied societal norms and captivated audiences with her bearded visage.
