The Royal Rocketes

Posted By on August 17, 2011

Barely seen here in this photo are the Royal Rockets, Dorothy and Paul, her husband. John Carson Jr is in the background. They are performing a high speed spin. Dorothy’s feet are held behind Paul’s neck as she out swings head first. The Carsons were on the Siebrand Circus for several seasons. This photo taken in the mid 1950’s.
