P.T. Barnum's American Museum in the 1850s and after a fire in 1868. The museum was one of New York's most famous attractions. It held a combination of scientific and not-so-scientific exhibits. After surviving an attempt by Confederate sympathizers to burn it in 1864, the museum did burn down in 1865 and burned down again, in a new location, in 1868. After the 1868 fire, Barnum shut down the museum.

Stories of Patagonian giants are nothing new. But the tale of Kap Dwa, a 12-foot, two-headed giant whose mummified body somehow ended up in Baltimore, Maryland, has raised questions as to its authenticity.
Is this all an elaborate hoax; another addition in the freak shows of the famed P. T. Barnum. Or could there be a kernel of truth in claims that this specimen is all that remains of a lost tribe of Patagonian giants?

Bon, n'étant pas très mobile, difficile de créer des posts avec de nouvelles photos. Je reviens donc à mon projet de présenter l'intégralité de mes photos, projet interrompu à l'année 2017. Je vais donc essayer de clore cette année 2017. Et elle sera close par Marseille aux vacances de Noël.

What You Love About Raúl Esparza
https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/145732570?asc=u
Raúl Esparza once again stole the show with his performance of There's A Sucker Born Every Minute from the Musical Barnum during the Celebrating 50 Years of Broadway by showcasing everything that we love about him. As always, all proceeds benefit MCC Theater (in Raúl Esparza's honor) and the Joyful Heart Foundation (in Raúl Esparza's & Peter Scanavino's honor).
