Anita

Coney Island freak show circa 1945 (colorized).
“Anita” the Elephant Girl (real name & date unknown).

Very little can be found about Anita the Elephant Girl on the internet.
A defunct website may have had a biography of sorts but I couldn’t find an archive of the article: “Anita The Elephant-Faced Girl: Embracing Uniqueness and Overcoming Challenges.”

Four Or Five Times, King Oliver’s Dixie Syncopators (1928).
Had trouble identifying this song (untitled file name) and King Oliver apparently recorded more than one version (perhaps with his Creole Jazz Band). Others recorded this song about the same time including McKinney’s Cotton Pickers, Jimmie Noone’s Apex Club Orchestra and Ben Pollack & The Whoopee Makers.
