Laying Them in the Aisles for Jimmy the Catcher (The Jessup Brothers Religous Healing Act and Show)
The Four Jessup Brothers, Jimmy, Charity, Darrel and Byron, the oldest only 23, are putting on a religious healing show. The boys are literally "laying them in the aisles" as shown in the above photo of a woman patient swooning into the arms of Jimmy, the "catcher" after Charley finished his "cure."Original 1939 Press Photo, collection Jim Linderman

Jim,
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing that photo with us!
I was just watching a tv show that still has people doing this healing show...
I should say "NOT" this healing show but one like it.
