George Washington Nutt AKA Commodore Nutt

Commodore Nutt (George Washington Morrison Nutt April 1, 1848 - May 25, 1881) was an American dwarf entertainer. In 1861, he was touring New England with a circus when P. T. Barnum hired him to appear at the American Museum in New York City. Barnum gave Nutt the stage name Commodore Nutt, a wardrobe that included naval uniforms, and a miniature carriage in the shape of an English walnut. Nutt became one of the Museum's major attractions. He toured the world between 1869-72 with the Thumbs and Lavinia's sister, Minnie Warren. They returned to America rich beyond their dreams after appearing before royalty around the world. He left Barnum's employ after a disagreement with the showman. He toured with a comic opera company, put together a variety show on the West Coast, and operated saloons in Oregon and California. He returned to New York City, and died there of Bright's disease in 1881 at the age of 33. No photographer credited, 1863.
