FIRST IMPRESSION #4: LOVELY LADIES #4
Here we see two of the lovely, classy, aerialists, possibly in a change of wardrobe, but more likely in the transition of improving their style as time went by. Lou Ann Jacobs, and Gala Shawn,and if I had an entrance photo of Dolly's Ring Act, it would be here too)!
LOU ANN JACOBS BARREDA
GALA SHAWN
I remember when Gala Shawn's entrance cape was a simple Mink Stole, and when she entered the ring, it was positive proof that, "it ain't what you do, it's the way what you do it"!

whether you knew her as galla shawn or tiny gallagher, she was the Marilyn Monroe of the circus!
Tiny was a lady to the end. She and Buzz use to have concessions on Jim Hetzers Circus. I did the marketing for Jim on a number of his West Virginia dates. Spent a number of evenings jackpotting with Tiny and Buzz in those WV coal minning towns. Tiny contiuned to have the appearance of a star center ring performer..Thank you Tiny you will not be forgotten. My younger daughters at the time always enjoy going with me because they knew Tiny would give them an item from their stand...Thank you Bill for posting these wonderful pictures...
She was another one of those great, but humble people, who made it worth being here!!!!
What a true circus "Babe!!" Worked with her on Shrine dates. She indeed marked the totalness of "Circus Royalty."
