I am from a small city in Illinois. Robert Wadlow was from the St Louis area. He used to travel around the region for all to see. He was a particular favorite of children.
In fact I knew a guy that saw Robert. I was told that back in the days when Main Street was lined with businesses sporting awnings, Robert Wadlow could reach up flat footed and touch the signs above the awnings.
wow. what an incredible photo
ReplyDeleteScaling off my screen, it appears that the elder Mr. Wadlow stands about 73 inches tall.
