The Roy Rogers Show
“Here’s a picture of my wife, Cathy Tantillo, in 1951, in front of her childhood home in Stanton Island, New York,” says Charlie O’Brien. “She was 5 years old at the time and thought that if she dressed up like Dale Evans, just maybe she could appear on TV with Roy Rogers!”
Davy Crockett
“Davy Crockett was all the rage in 1955 when a five-part serial starring Fess Parker was airing on ABC as part of the “Disneyland” series. Genevieve Catina of Duncansville, Pennsylvania, shared this photo of brother, Bob McDonald, age 2, showing off his tot-sized Davy Crockett costume outside the family home in nearby Loretto.”

Remember and miss the 50s.
