Rare early original vintage cabinet card photograph of a circus sideshow fat lady identified on the back as “Caddie Clare - Weight - 430”.

She was part of a sideshow act in which her twin was the midget Rose Clare. Caddie Clare was in Walter L Main’s Sideshow in 1893 and Rose Clare was with the Sells Bros. Circus during the 1886 season.

Photographer’s stamp at bottom reads, “Obermuller and Kern - 388 Bowery, N. Y.”.  Obermuller and Kern were notable photographers in New York for their circus and sideshow photographs.

This is a vintage photograph and not a copy or reproduction.

CDV measures 2 1/2 x 4 inches  and is in excellent condition with no bends, tears, or creases and is very sharp and has strong tones with good contrast and clarity.
