Dora Helms (2)

Pictured on right. Touring giantess I found online. Her bra size must be larger than Miosotis,' perhaps about a V or W cup. Dora Helms (or Herms) started her career as a touring giantess as Riesin Dora in the Panoptikum in Berlin (Riesenbackfisch Dora), and Brunhilde. In 1914 she toured the U.S., where she married William van Droysen who's real name was Werner Syre. The couple toured together throughout Europe and went back to the U.S. in 1922 to appear with Barnum & Bailey. They had a daughter together (1921) called Ruth. William van Droysen died in 1925, when daughter Ruth was only 4 years old. Ruth grew quickly herself, reaching 6'0" at the age of 11. She was said to have stopped growing at 6'7", the same height as her mother. Later she became more famous for being one half of the van Droysen sisters. She toured as Hilda van Droysen together with Kaatje van Dyk, who was Elsa van Droysen. Dora Helms used to work with Werner Syre and eventually married him and he called himself William van Droysen. So apart from the van Droysen sisters, there was also a van Droysen couple. Often claimed to be well over 7 foot, but photographic evidence suggest she was no taller than 6'7".
