This New Car Of Yours Better Have A Sun Roof, Karen

This 1935 photograph shows the Giraffe Necked Woman of Bertram Mills' "Freak Show" being examined by doctors. Unfortunately, there's not much information available about this long-necked lady, but it's most likely she comes from the Kayan or Karen tribes of Myanmar and northwest Thailand. Although, like Thailand used to be Siam, Myanmar was still known as Burma back then. For centuries, the tribeswomen have been lengthening their necks with brass rings.

You'll be glad to hear that the Karen tribes of Myanmar and Thailand are nowhere near as entitled as Karen from your Accounts Department!
