In the mid 1960’s Olgie and Jack Gorden built a small circus. This is one of their publicity photos. Kayletta, Jacks wife did her sway pole act. Years before…… Kayletta was the wife of one of the Sky Kings that did a sway pole act.

Hi Ivan,
I’ve enjoyed the pictures you’ve posted of the Zavatta’s. I remember Monte and Gino very well from our time on the Siebrand show. Your mention of Kayletta Gordon also brought back memories. I can’t count the times I watched her sway pole act and the amazing “slide for life” she did down to the stage at the end of the act. In my head, I can still hear Poncho announcing the act.
Thanks for the memories. Keep it up.
