To the Virtuosi in Anatomy, and to all Lovers
of natural CURIOSITIES.

There is now to be seen at Mr Symes's, Peruke-Maker,
opposite the Mews Wall, Charing Cross,

A SURPRIZING
N E G R O,
From the Gold Coast;

WHO, by a most extraordinary and never-before-heard-of Dilatation and Construction of the *Deltoid* and *Biceps* Muscles of the Arms, those of the Back, &c. claps his Hands faft together, throws them over his Head and Back, and brings them in that Position under his Feet. This he repeats, backwards or forwards, as often as the Spectators shall desire, without ever separating them. Many Persons have imagin'd, on hearing of this extraordinary Performance, that this Negro is weakly in the Arms, and has some of his Joints dislocated: But the flighteft Inpec-tion will convince them of their Error; for he is extreamly strong and ac-tive, and performs it with surprizing Facility. He has been shewn to the Royal Society, at their General-Meeting, on Thursday the 4th of Decem-ber, 1751, at their House in Crane-Court, Fleet-Street; to several skilful Physicians, Surgeons, Anatomifts, and Gentlemen acquainted with the Muscular System; who, aftonifh'd at the Sight, allow him to be the greatest Curiosity that ever human Nature produc'd.

\*\* He is to be seen, by any Number of Persons, without Lofs of Time,
from Ten in the Morning'till Eight at Night, at One Shilling each.

*Note, Any Gentleman, for Six-pence more, may fee him exhibit this extraordinary Performance, with his Arms and Back bare.*

N.B. Whoever endeavours to do the like, will be immediately con-vinc'd that it is next to an Impossibility.
