These banners and the characters they portray are all original works inspired by the banners of the 1930-1950 era.
The tattoos on the girl of the banner are different from the tattoos of today. They're less dense, allowing her to add detail over her lifetime of a career in the freak shows. More feminine, too; tattoos of lingerie and flowers. And her back, well, you would have to buy a ticket to see that...
The Fortune Teller, however, is playing the same old con game that they've played for centuries.
The story of the twins is painted right on their banner and is readable on the poster prints. Click the link below to read it.
