Real photo postcard publicity photograph showing a very small adult male performer identified in the image as the “Smallest Man in the World.” The man stands outdoors on a patterned rug placed on a lawn in front of a house with leaded glass window. The performer wears a light colored suit, tie, and hat and stands facing the camera with hands together in front of his body. The composition appears staged for publicity with the rug used as a platform beneath his feet and the house façade forming the background. The front bears the printed text: “Smallest Man in the World.”. The reverse reads: Standard “POST CARD” divided back format. Handwritten inscriptions read: “Capt. Werner” and date “May 15, 34.”.
