Though it is universally agreed that these two performers were fake Siamese or Conjoined Twins, nothing much else is known about them. We know they appeared with the Buffalo Bill Circus in 1910 based on a question posed by a reader published in The Buffalo Enquirer in October 1910, but little else is known about where they performed. One real photo postcard image of the performers is notated on the back "Barnum and Bailey Circus," though it is unknown whether this notation is contemporary, and seems unlikely given the blatant phoniness of the act.
