George Lippert
George Lippert (1844, Bavaria – July 1906, Salem, Oregon),[1] was born with three legs and, as was discovered during his autopsy, two hearts.[2] He worked as a curiosity for nearly 50 years, many of them for P. T. Barnum.[2] Although he claimed that his third leg was fully functional until it was fractured in an accident, this has not been firmly established.[3]
In 1898, he began facing competition from a three-legged boy, Sicilian-born Frank Lentini, who was touring with the Ringling Brothers Circus. By 1899 he was penniless, but found a benefactor in a florist named Mary Riggs, with whom he lived in his final years.[3]
He died of tuberculosis in 1906.
The Ronald G. Becker Collection of Charles Eisenmann Photographs, held by Syracuse University, includes a photograph of a painting titled "George Lippert three legged man".[4]
