    Interesting Real Photo Postcard shows two men dressed as women on the path with Circus background (1920s?)
    and the other photo shows a man or woman "giant"(slit skirt and trousers under it as she/he lifts knee or is it another person under there??) next to an average sized female
    This about 1915-20. PLEASE SEE ALL THREE PHOTOS .

      I forgot to mention-The shorter woman is dressed in a man's sailor uniform. Just ducky that these two were out on a stroll together!Must have raised many an eyebrow, or got second glances for sure!

      Does anyone think the tall person could be on stilts?
