Five-color wood-engraved color two-sheet poster picturing the ?smallest persons in the world,? Cassie and Victoria Foster, whose unusual petiteness were the cause of much wonder during their short lives. Framed with plexiglass to 58 x 43?. Not examined out of frame. See Exemplars, p. 114. Cassie and Victoria Foster?two of eleven children and seven years apart in age?weighed a mere twelve pounds at age 10 and six pounds at age 3 respectively.
