About the Item

This itinerant showman, with his drum and what appears to be a peep show, met a real need. What’s offered definitely engages the man in the group, but the woman pawing at his shoulder reeks of disapproval. With very few options available for amusement, rural folk were starved for entertainment. To relate, imagine the world without streaming.
