EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a vintage sideshow poster from 1949, created by the talented Nieman Eisman. The poster features the charismatic Celesta Geyer, famously known as Jolly Dolly Dimple. In this remarkable piece of art, we witness the essence of circus culture in its prime. Jolly Dolly Dimple is portrayed as a larger-than-life performer with her unique charm and undeniable presence. Her jovial smile and infectious energy radiate from the poster, capturing the attention of anyone who lays eyes on it. This image serves as a testament to the diversity that existed within circuses during that era. The text on the poster highlights key aspects that made Jolly Dolly Dimple an intriguing figure: her size, referred to as "fat" which was considered unusual at that time; her dimples; and her association with being a freak or oddity. However, rather than focusing solely on these attributes, Eisman's artwork celebrates Jolly Dolly's vivacity and spirit. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported back to mid-century America when side shows were popular entertainment for people seeking thrills and marvels beyond their everyday lives. It reminds us of how society has evolved over time in terms of body positivity and acceptance. This Granger Collection print allows us to appreciate both the artistic talent behind creating such posters and also provides insight into historical cultural phenomena like circuses and sideshows.
