About this work

Description

Postcard showing H. Feig, 'Germany's fattest man' (over 500 pounds) who was to be seen in Kellenhusen in Ostseebad. The postcard was sent in June 1923 and shows Feig sitting on a wooden bench in front of a brick wall with 2 windows, walking stick in his right hand. The card was presumably on sale as a souvenir to those who came to view him.
