Vintage shots from days gone by!

Hey! I was there yesterday!!

 

Used to watch the Roller Derby on Sunday afternoon tv. They were as real as the tv wrestling matches or todays reality shows.

 

Roller Derby ! Anis "Big Red " Jensen, San Fransisco Bay Bombers, Peanut, Big Charlie !! Used to go see it live at the San Fran Armory and the Oakland Armory, then drift on down to Charlie "O"'s and rub shoulders with the troops. Lotsa fun back then !

They just didn't like the fact that she thought she was Miss Auto Accessory! They realized too late that all the attention was going to her and not their business. Autographs anyone?
