Sword Swallower or Knife Manipulator "Lady Attira"

CARTE DE VISITE (or Cabinet Card) of unlikely Circassian sword swallower in gypsy dress, probably from a very small show. Interesting to note that this image is found in many places on the internet, whereas the image was probably originally taken from eBay, all of which ID'ed as a sword swallower. That said, the position and angle of the "sword" indicate that this person was most likely NOT a sword swallower. By "L.B. Webster, Louisville, KY."
