lol if I'd been any closer she'd be sitting on Jo Jo's lap!
either I recall reading about her and the other hairy ones - the Burmese Family being another fave as well as the Mexican clan - or it may have also been from years of ripley's believe it or not obsessions. Your pic of her on the harpsicord was so familiar to me, yet just out of my memorie's reach...wish I could have hung out with her.
curious as to your picture's origin? to me it looks very familiar and it is driving me mad to place it lol. Is it a middle ages Jo Jo the Dog faced Boy or a member of the Guild of Unkempt Masons?
