T. Barnum’s Most Beloved Fat Lady, Hannah Battersby (1836-1889). This is a very nice relective pose of this historic Oddity Performer. Born as Hannah Jane Perkins, she married British born “Human Skeleton” John Lord Battersby. They had three children. Hannah was billed as weighing 714 pounds, but was probably in the 400’s to maybe 500’s somewhere. She was said to be over six foot tall. The name written on backside of the photo is incorrect and was probably added at a much later date. The photo is in very good vintage condition with only some normal expected age lightness.
