Freak group photo
Joel spotted this terrific freak family photo. Click to see it larger. It's labeled "Truman State University," perhaps from their archives. Anyone know more about it?
UPDATE: Thanks to everyone for sharing great info in the comments. The photo, titled "Congress of Freaks, Ringling Brothers Circus," can be seen in the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory's Eugenics Archive.
