By 1867, Josie had become so poverty stricken,
that she had only one presentable dress for strolling out.
Then, in November 1867, she met Jim Fisk,
a wealthy financier who was in
the habit of handing out $100 bills
to women who caught his roving eye.
Fisk certainly didn't look like a ladies' man;
Although he attracted attention, it was for all the wrong reasons.
“He was a striking figure, tall, florid, very fat,”
wrote Lloyd Morris in Incredible New York.
“His light brown hair was pomaded and carefully waved,
his mustache waxed to fine points, and huge diamonds
blazed on his frilled shirt front and pudgy fingers.”
The iconic image KALOMA, which is shown in this presentation, and is generally touted to be the image of Josie Mansfield, which it isn’t ; the identity of the woman in the KALOMA image, is revealed in this video!

This video by the way was supposed to be posted before the Josie Earp video, so sorry if my comments are confusing at the end.
@Mike Diaz-Albistegui yes that one.
Oddie your Instagram link is cut off in the info box, just thought you might like to know.
When I go to Community all I see is the pictures and links to the videos, I don't see any way to send pictures. Is it because I'm useing an older Andorid phone? Could you please tell me what I'm doing wrong as I'd like to post a picture of the funny bears standing by the car that I drew to try to enter the giveaway.
I want to follow the rules of the contest and not just pop it on Facebook or whatever.
There sure are alot of neat stuff to see on the link you provided on the 'ad' for this video. I'll re-watch this video now.😁
It's still being made but when it's done the company will send 'IT' to you, I did send them $ for postage but they stated that because as a "thanks" for my being a Vet that any added ship. /costs they would pay for, and they're adding the bottom bit at no added charge to me. How kool and unbelievably nice of them !
'IT' comes in a gold frame with the authenticity paper sgined on the back by 'THE' person that MAKES The Walk Of Fame 'THE' real Walk of Fame 'Stars', in Hollywood.
PLEASE think of this as.....
FROM ALL YOUR ODDIE BUD/FANS, not just me. You Tube may not appreciate all your hard work but 'WE' ....DO !!! I know I do.
The video on the lady that took her life when she jumped from the Hollywood Sgin gave me the idea to look into it, and look into it I did and got 'THE' folks who make the 'Real Deal' to do it, not some cheesy tourist shop would do. No cutting coroners like it says in the info box. .
Of course it's just to hang on the wall and not the sidewalk thingie, but it is being made by the folks that them for the 'stars' in Hollywood so I just hope you like it.
They're even sending me a picture of it, don't know if the picture will be in an email, I did ask them to send me a hard copy, only time will tell. Take care. 🤘👻💖
❤️ You are an absolute joy to see
You oughta be in movies....you oughta be a star!
Oddie, why does CZcams, and Patreon give you so much grief? Your stories are so interesting and well researched! Maybe jealousy on their behalf, but it will not work, your fans will fight for your beloved videos, sir! Good luck to a very great storyteller!
Patreon doesn’t give me grief, Patreon is a godsend for me - without that site I would’ve given up on CZcams long ago. CZcams is being a lot easier on me lately, but still there’s not much money to be made here anymore - it’s Patreon that keeps me going.
Thank you for your lovely feedback, much appreciated.
I always feel like I’m entering into a dream when I watch these videos. It’s like twenty minutes of time travel. Another masterpiece! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That's very kind of you, thank you for that.
Yes!!! This is exactly what its like!!
You took the words right out of my mouth! It's like entering a whole different time frame for 20 minutes yeah!
I feel like I'm living "Somewhere In Time," like the 1980 Christopher Reeve movie!
Couldn’t agree more!
Very well said
Love these vintage stories. They really haven't changed. Meaning love & lust will always find a place.
What a beautiful, sad, and tragic story. From the very beginning, Josie had such a hard life, being the subject of sexual abuse by her stepfather. I'm sure that was much more common than we know. This story needs to be made into a movie.
This poor woman never had a chance...she was taught early that she had no power over her life or hee body and that her only value was of being of sexual use to bad men....she was made destitute and infamous by them and did what she had to in order to survive, despite trying hard not to. That poor soul. I feel so sad for her. I love your videos Oddie! They're so charming and unique.
Thank you for your very kind feedback, much appreciated 🙏
When my sister and I were children we used to live to listen to AM radio on summer nights and listen to narrated stories just like this that's how we would lower ourselves to sleep this brings back wonderful memories of my childhood thank you so much for your stories they're greatly appreciated
Glad you enjoyed it - thank you very much!
I truly hope Josie was able to find some happiness and peace in her life.
So do I
I suppose that depends upon her treatment by others. A girl has to even the powers over her by those that take advantage. now doesn't she? Surrounded by self serving narcissists, interlopers unwanted attention by people with personality disorders, I think she did pretty well. But, after all we weren't even there, were we? There is a lot of projection going on here. When emotions are a good substitution for the facts, that is projection. Interesting, but not compelling. A woman stands up for herself, and what does she get? Male domination. No, thanks. I'm a little disturbed by the misogyny often exposed by these videos. Less of that would be nice.
This is such a heartbreaking story. She was basically sexually exploited by men all her life, even those she was supposed to trust.
A N D it STILL goes on to this day All Around the World…
(Who knows, something might be happening in our own communities right now that many years in the future they’ll be doing stories like this on!?)
@@derklavierspieler7491 yes but did she REALLY have much of an alternative?🤔
In those days the laws were as much against women as they are against fathers in the UK in today!
🤭
@@derklavierspieler7491 And so what if she did?
@@derklavierspieler7491 she was sexually abused from the age of 12 and used in an era where women had few if any rights that’s not playing men jeezus
@@derklavierspieler7491 I did, and you still act like she was somehow an evil woman taking advantage of poor wittle rich men :(( . All of these men pursued her, not the other way around. I remind you that she was still a child (15-16ish) when the 100 dollar bill guy whose name I can’t spell came after her. After being harassed for over three months of course she gave in and became his mistress. She wasn’t playing anyone and it’s kinda appalling that you’re defending predators
You should write a book on these scandals from early New York. I’d buy it
Thank you so much! 😊
Excellent story telling
Many many thanks!
Great story. The drama back in the days still the same today 🙃.... If you were rich you got away with alot.
I agree Oddie, it was definitely murder. It is laughable that they would say it was manslaughter. I really feel bad for Josie, she was used and taken advantage of at such a young age and was failed miserably by her own mother when she was a child. A great and fascinating story and amazingly told as always.
Thank you! 😊 Glad you enjoyed the presentation my friend!
I think this one is one of the saddest ones you've told so far. She suffered from sexual abuse from men all her life, and was used as an excuse to commit murder. Very very sad. Your historical features are always grand and lush, very immersive. I felt for Josie very much.
I really appreciate that. Thank you :)
Ort conversely...she manipulated men for her personal gain her whole life.
@@its_yellow Disgusting is what you are believing in a story written by strangers and where NO ONE knows for sure what is true...yet YOU will attack someone is they don't swallow it all like a good Yellow dog. Absurd.
Yes, there is always such a deep interest in these women, but I don't feel any real sense of understanding, from their point of view.
@@TheWolfsnack After all, it’s not as if Josie had a hella choice in the matter. /s
Don’t be a bitter bitch: Note the time in which this woman (who was once a girl but that was quickly extinguished) lived. If you were a female at that time and place you’d be Josie too.
I lived in Saratoga Springs for awhile, the Grand Union was torn down almost a century ago, it was enormous. The only hotel even close to it's type but not size, is the Adelphi a half block away.
Oddie, you outdid yourself with this one. What's not to love? Great story, fantastic number and selection of images. Loved the addition of the tiny black silhouette people and that fantastic werewolf guy (?) waving to us from a rooftop in one of the last scenes. As if all this wasn't good enough, the soft chimes-like music was wonderful, just wonderful. I'd love to have it playing as a dreamy, contemplative background if you ever do a CD of it. Come to think of it, a CD collection of Oddie music in your videos would be great.
Thanks for your kind words Sharon, that's so nice of you.
I completely agree!
A DVD collection of his wonderful stories would be amazing.🖤🇨🇦
Missed the werewolf, and most of the oddities, lol. Creative and engaging.
Wow, a Billion thanks for this! True American history that you could never learn in school. Textbook knowledge seems to always come up very short of, "what's really going on".
So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
Such a sad story. I wonder if she ever found happiness. My love to you and Mrs Oddie. Be safe my friend. Thank you for your wonderful storytelling.
Thanks so much
What a life on a rollercoaster! Great for, Oddie, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved this one; also the beautiful pictures! I cringe to think of incest. It is such a foul crime against the victim. Her stepfather was quite the Bastard! It was a very touching, but sad, haunting story. Beautifully produced, as always. Thank you Oddie! God Bless you & yours:)
Very glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for your kind feedback - God bless you too!
He has the best narrative voice on the web. He understands syntaxes , intonation and correct accent. Unlike so many of his website narrators he is a professional. The others speak without having proofread or knowing what the words mean or how the are used. For example: one site mentioned Pavarotti and reffered to HER wonderful voice . Really? Folks we can do better.
Thanks for your really great feedback Gabrielle, a truly wonderful compliment - much appreciated :)
Such a marvellous tale of the rich shenanigans of the day ! My word , they certainly looked very comfortably well nourished, as well. Many thanks, dear Oddie. Sunday evening entertainment from your good self cannot be bettered 🌹
So nice of you Christine.
@@ObsoleteOddity
Thank you so much 😊 🌹🌹🙏🏼💐💐💐
I love all the pictures, drawings, and paintings! Amazing!!
Clever, clever man you are!
I really appreciate that. Thank you :)
Wonderful "inpsiring delight" , soul crushing to think of the abuse she endured simply because she was pretty. Thanks for sharing !
The stories that will be told of the pretty girls to whom this happens even today will not be nearly as interesting. They have much less of a way forward. I have a real respect for women like Josie, who were able to make their way in an age of great social divides.🖤🇨🇦
The way you narrate, display and expose historical events is why I love this channel. Excellent presentation as always. BTW. I loved the "Zombie" carrying on in the overhang of the Beaulangerie, lol.
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊

I absolutely love your "blah blahs" at the end. Relevant or not, they're so much fun and informative as well.
I really appreciate that my friend. Thank you :)
I LOVE your channel. Thank you for all your hard work..it IS very much appreciated..Especially when I was in the hospital for a couple weeks, these videos kept me going! Every night when I
want to have a nice deep sleep, this channel is my go to! Keep it up! 😊
I appreciate your positive feedback, thank you so much. 😊🙏
I love _all_ of the music in this and want it on my iPod. I don't have _nearly_ enough music that sound like it's playing through a haunted gramophone lol
I like that you put it right that that Stokes was guilty of murder not man slaughter. Thanks for your decency is amending this miscarriage of Justice. I love your work. Your special effects are fabulous. I’ve spent many hours enjoying so many curious but fascinating stories. Best wishes. Corinne. Brighton. Uk. Ps loved the very old photos of Brighton
Thank you for your kind words my friend, I appreciate your positive feedback 🙏☺️
Love this story. Josie had nine lives...goodness what an adventure. The photos are wonderful.
Very glad you enjoyed it, thank you so much for your positive feedback.
Every time I play one of your videos my daughters Dog perks her ears up, and listens to the whole video with me. She only does this when it's your videos. We love your content 💜
That is awesome!
THANK YOU, no one tells a story quite like you.
That's very kind of you, thank you for that.
Josie,as a girl was victimized, as she got older she turned the tables.She sure lived a interesting life!
#TeamJosieMansfield
So true! My goodness, she certainly took control (as much as she could during the time) of her life.
This was a wonderful telling of sad people. I do so love all your tellings. Wish you could put up more, but will take anything your able to tell. I thank you Oddie. Much love 🥰❤️. Waiting for more. God Bless 🙏🙏 you and your Mrs,🤗☺️💖
So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
I love a beautiful tombstone.Like the ones in Italy.🤗
Thank you once again beautiful story I wish you and your family happiness and health
Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
My father worked as the night manager at that hotel during the depression. It was then called the Broadway Central hotel and he was a student at New York University. I never knew about the murder. Thanks for the upload. Interesting.
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing that.
Another amazing performance Oddie. ☮️💟☮️
Thank you kindly
Can't wait to listen
Ty for still sharing yourself with the rest of us 💜
You’re most welcome Mary 🙏
Thank for the wonderful story about Josie Mansfield. She was a beautiful woman, and from the sound of it went through an ordeal. I bet she was a blast to hang out with, thanks for the entertainment on this fine Sunday morning as always I can't wait until next time. Hmm ñ
Thank you! 😊 Glad you enjoyed the presentation my friend!
Love historical stories! Yours are so entertaining and enjoyable. Love the many period pictures but I have to say, the first time I saw the “facial features” move, I was a little creeped out LOL. Thank you for all your hard work.
Thank you so much for reaching out with your kind feedback 😊
Well done so sad about Jose Mansfield life never heard of heard Rest In Peace
That warm, contented feeling you get when notified of a new post from dear Oddie! What a tragic existence Josie had and many thanks for telling her story. The music was haunting and complemented the woeful tale perfectly.
That's very kind of you, thank you for that.
I have to finish every one of these it’s like a mental attachment that is demanding I listen until the end !! Compelling
I really appreciate that. Thank you :)
Thanks well put together
I've been watching videos for a few years now, the stories are great and very well researched. I enjoy them so much and I love all the imagery. I've always found that it really creates a connection between us and the people of the past. And on that note, in this video at 6:48 there's a picture of a man sitting by a piano and a woman sitting on the stool in front of it. I think this is one of the coolest photos I've ever seen!!! That piano is identical to the one my grandma has. It belonged to her grandparents who purchased it in Iowa before moving to Washington State in 1904. They bought farmland and while building the house, they set up something temporary and my great grandmother was actually sleeping on top of that piano! There's a cover that comes down over the keys and when lifted up the panel on the front with the scrolls tilts out about 3 in. to hold the sheet music. It's still in perfect working order today and has a rich and deep rounded tone unlike any other piano I've ever heard. The last time she was going to have it tuned the man said he didn't really want to because of its age, and besides, although it's out of tune, it's perfectly in tune with itself! To put the cherry on the cake, what made me pause and look closely at the photo was actually the stool. It's made of a dark, polished wood, the seat spins around on a cork screw so it can be adjusted to the right height and the four feet are claws holding clear, glass orbs; almost like they're each holding a crystal ball. My grandma also still has the stool that originally came with her piano, and it's also identical to the one in the photo. I can't wait to show this to her, she will be so excited!! She remembers it sitting in her grandparent's sitting room. Her grandmother played it, her mother and aunt did as well, and she learned to play the piano on it as a child and has played it her whole life. It's a very special piece. Happily my sister plays piano and she will inherit it from grandma, thus keeping it in the family for a fifth generation!
I’m very happy to hear that Megan, thank you so much for your great feedback. Very glad you enjoyed the presentation! 😊
Thank you, also for sharing the story about your grandmother’s piano, it’s amazing that it’s still around after all that time - I like what the piano tuner said as well!
Never heard of Josie, but did a genealogy and my family traced back to New England. A Davy Mansfield was present from the time of the first ship to land at Jamestown.
One of those families that have been here long enough to notice the name popping up in a lot of places.
A lot of production went into this story. The animation between the text and narration was adorable. Great story of an old gold digger.
Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
Wow what a roller coaster of life poor Josie!! Sir oddie made my day fantastic you feed my brain bless you!! As always be well safe & thank you ☯️🎭👣🙏🌎

Good morning Oddie , thank you for dropping this story to us this morning. Yes , I agree rich people do seem to be able to get better court deals still to this day , in many countries. Interesting the many places I have been that were mentioned in this story. Love your reading voice , it makes it better to listen. to when a story starts to get scary.
Thanks for your interesting insights and positive feedback. much appreciated 😊
I think poorer people get less justice in every country. I agree Oddity has a very enchanting voice.🤗🇬🇧🌹
@@englishcountrylife3805 And a caring respect for these women whom others despised.🖤🇨🇦
I believe this is by far the best you tube channel created
That's very kind of you, thank you for that.
I'm familiar with Boston and the Bay Area, and its varied history has always fascinated me tremendously.
Very interesting Oddie. The way things were done back then is so unbelievable to me. The life that Josie led was certainly far from dull..but often seemed like she might long for some dullness from time to time. She lived far longer than most of her uh suitors tho eh? Even with cancer. As far as that silly trial triplet of farces, sometimes I think we've scarcely advanced. Sadly and frustratingly. Thank you so much for all your hard work and for making the Patreon vids available. I'm still hoping to start that up again. I wish they would just allow us more room to schedule the payments! Take care my friend. You and Oddette and any critters. God bless.🙏😍🐾

Came across Obsolete Oddities by accident, absolutely brilliant, hope to see many more.
I appreciate that Douglas, thank you very much!
Yes, your videos are hypnotic and soothing, with the slideshow of old sepiatone photographs, newspaper engravings and such, accompanied by the music you've chosen. I agree that a CD of Oddie's favorites would be appropriate, and a possible bestseller. For one, I'd put it on and sleep to it, and that is intended as a compliment, not an insult. Love your stuff!
That is very kind of you and it really makes my day, that my efforts are so appreciated - I thank you sincerely.
@@ObsoleteOddity You're making my day right now, quite literally; I've discovered your full inventory on one playlist, and I've started from the beginning, intending to spend the whole day and well into the night with you, however long it takes to view the 201 selections on offer. You open a window onto stories of which I've never heard, and you give me new perspectives on those I've known from long ago. I'm a filmmaker myself, so I know what work goes into your craft. The love shows...

So glad you enjoyed the presentation - very much appreciated 😊
Poor Josie I hope she found happiness and is resting in peace 🌹
Out of respect for their lives, there apparently were four deaths due to the collapse of The Broadway Central Hotel in 1973. The article you show, tells in the first sentence of the answer, of the deaths, although you say that is fortunate that no one died. Just a small thing.
The lovely soprano aria that underplays the narrative @22:56 is wonderful, aided by your echo effect. Very evocative of a time and society gone by.
I love your channel, and I look forward to any and all new videos from you! Thank you for doing what you do!💗💗💗💗💗💗
I really appreciate that Amanda, thank you very much ☺️🙏
Love love love your videos. The art work, animation, details, everything, I just love. Thank you, Oddie, for another great story.

That’s a wonderful compliment Savannah, I really appreciate that.
So glad you’re enjoying my content 🙏
I find it intriguing that the architecture of the 1800s was so immense and perfect to have been constructed by a horse and buggy society. I noticed the greatly muddied streets in the midst of the grand structures. Seems there was a previous culture there that mysteriously disappeared. Reset???
Greedy people likeing to do shabby work to keep getting paid is what I think.
If I ever can I want to make a homestead, have a study cabin built, I'll be on site and help to build it so I know it's done right.
Will also have an underground home built, would be cool in the summer, 65 degrees in winter and would be a storm shelter as well.
A meat smoke building, and underground root celler, water storeage, solar pannels the whole bit.😁 That's my idea of a dream home. You can have a garden for food & one to grow for med.plants.
It would be built right that's for sure.
Have a boat house for the lake, cats, dogs buddies, cows, sheep, chickens, maybe horses.
Would be alot of work but well worth it. How's that sound?
@@ghostcityshelton9378 sounds pretty perfect to me Sis, but I’d have to have a couple of strong farm hands to help with the heavy work. They could have their own cabin. It sounds a good bit like the self sufficiency farm I grew up on. We also had an orchard and a berry garden. It was heated with our sawdust burner cooking stove and was a slice of paradise. We picked wild herbs and asparagus. The only things we had to buy in town were flour and sugar…those kind of staples and bandages…and a few patent medications. We sold homemade butter, eggs, and orchard fruit. I hope you are doing well Ruth, I miss you.🖤🇨🇦
Happened upon this by chance. Great narrative format.: visuals/voice/music. Thanks!
I’m glad you enjoyed it, thank you for your positive feedback Richard.
HEY!!!!! I'm from Boston Mass!!!! I was born in Jp at Beth Israel Deaconsses Hospital!!!! I lived mostly everywhere my last home was East Boston!!! 19 years of me and my mum's lives...sadly I currently live in fort wayne Indiana and trying to move back home to Massachusetts
WoW Oddie…I believe this may be my favorite of your special works. I love seeing the old pictures.
I know some looked down on Josie but she only did what she’d been trained to do since 12. I hope she found some joy during her life & peace after…especially without feeling she owed someone a part of herself. And of course, Fisk’s murder was premeditated but as it is today, wealth influences all …even the ‘justice’ system. (Loved this!)
Thank you! ❤️

I find days difficult sometimes as I'm very sensitive to what's going on around me had an incident yesterday something silly but really brought me down couldn't sleep still feel it now just have to pull myself together Sorry I'm going on cheers Vic
Sorry to hear you are feeling a bit down Vic, don’t let what is happening around the world, and around the country affect you.
It’s all like a stage play, in 50 years time there will be other worries for people.
Interesting story you did not disappoint! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
Much appreciated, thank you kindly!
I absolutely love this channel & Thanks Oddie!😊❤
And I absolutely love your great feedback Lana, thank you!
@@ObsoleteOddity You're Welcome😁
I have watched your show for a while. Whenever I feel like settling down on my tablet at the end of the day, this is my favorite by far. You are informative and knowledgeable about all of your presentations. I hope to continue to see you on CZcams and will raise Hell if I don't!!!!!
That is very kind of you, and a wonderful compliment. Thank you so much!
