Elke, the original Bunion Queen had some amazing photos of her feet posted on The Bunion Museum. While that site is still partially up, we have re-posted them here along with Elke’s own commentary. We have also put each photo with its caption for your viewing pleasure.

1.) Y01 – I´m around age 19. Half as old as I am today. Alex and I fell in love with each other tremendously. We went in a Holiday Inn – only to make love…will always remember that nicht. At this time I only knew that Alex loved my feet in general, but I didn´t know that he was crazy about my little bunions and hammertoes. I didn´t know, that my lesser toes were curled under like this, if I pointed my foot. I remember that Alex liked to talk about the deformity of my toes, but I had no idea…
2.) Y02 – in another hotel, for the same reason…As you can see, my right second toe was as long as my big toe, although a big corn was taking place. Age 19.
3.) Y03 – Although I was 22, my lesser toes look more normal as with the earlier pics, the bunions are about the same.
4.) Y04 – During a vacation, age 23. My right bunion is swollen, it started hurting at this time, tailor bunions started to develop. I like the small form of my left forefoot. Right before the making of this photo I had my toes in Alex´s mouth – you see me drying my right foot toes…
5.) Y05 – It was my 24th Birthday. Again we prefered to be in a hotel… You see my right 2nd to go across the 3rd toe. Alex went nuts about this, he couldn´t get his eyes off my toes. At this night I felt he had to tell me something…and so he cautiously told me, that he loves it when my 2nd toe goes across the 3rd. But he said, that wouldn´t be everything, he got some more to tell me, he said. He started kissing my face and my bunions a few times in a row, while telling me everything. He was afraid about my reaction, but I only said: “Oh darling, don´t care, it´s just fine, there is nothing you have to be ashamed for. It´s new to me, but let´s explore it together.” Than he made love to my feet, to my bunions and hammertoes, to each single corn – KNOWING for the first time of his life, that I knew “it”, and that he could just do what he wanted without hiding anything. And than he loved the rest of my body – he almost fainted, and so did I….that´s the absolute truth I´m telling you.
6.) Y06 – Those pretty angled big toes this little young bitch has, hehehehe….
7.) Y07naked – ooopps – I hope, you do not only like my bunions and hammertoes…:-)
8.) Y08car – at age 23, at our new Mercedes. My toes looked bad here. The bunion looks so unreal, in the color version of this image you can see that I had a tape along the length side of my bunion. You can see a severe corn at my left 4th toe – and its already severe deformation – also it pushes against my left baby toe…
9.) Y09 – Pretty much deformed – for such a young, poor, poor girl…..:-)
10.) Y10 – Same day, same place. Here you can see, how each single joint of my left lesser toes develop to bent down pretty severly. My right foot looks, as if there would be no bunion at all, but there was…
11.) Y11 – I like that pic, some sweet soles…:-)
12.) Y12 – I think I was 18, the beginn of our love affair. Almost no bunions – but hammertoes were there…
Kisses – Elke –
