If I'm not mistaken, these are Wally Naughton's bears with the Howard Suesz Show about 1960.
The lady would be Cuccilo's sister Gena?
My wife would know but awakening her at 5:28 in the morning would not be a wise move.

Yes, it's Wally Naghtin's bears (no relation) and Netta (Dubsky) MacMahon.
She was most recently known as
Netta MacMahon as she was married
to Ray when she died a couple of
years back but worked an uncaged
leopard act as "Gina" & had been
married to Harry Dubsky Sr but
I 1st knew her as Antoinetta
Her son Hashi (Harry Jr) just
died recently on March 24th
Netta & her brother Cucciolo came
over with Alberto Zoppe's riding
act back in the late 40s
Didn't Wally do a Vargas stint at
some level of management
I remember talking with Wally when he was at the front entrance of the Circus Vargas big top Illinois. I talked to him a little bit, and told him I was headed to Bloomington, Illinois to talk with Lorraine Valentine, and deliver some Chef Pierre cakes for Cherie. He told me to say hi to Lorraine for him, which I did. Lorraine was happy he had said hello. I really enjoyed talking with Lorraine, she was a pleasure to talk with.
