EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the formidable presence of Frances Rheinlander, also known as The Great Athelda, as she poses confidently for the camera in her music hall strongwoman act. Born in Manchester, England, around 1913, Athelda was a renowned figure in the world of early 20th century entertainment, rivaling the legendary Vulcana (Kate Williams) in both strength and stage presence. The Great Athelda's powerful physique and unwavering determination were on full display as she showcased her impressive feats of strength for audiences. In a time when women's roles in entertainment were often limited, Athelda broke the mold, challenging gender norms and captivating audiences with her raw power and charisma.

The card serves as a testament to Athelda's enduring legacy as a pioneering figure in the world of strongwoman performances and a trailblazer for women in entertainment.
