Air Callipoe . . . that's not at all like an "air" guitar, now, is it . . .?

Wonderful photo essay on KM in their glory years. Lots of memories of those times and so many I remember. Real American circus history. Have heard lots of Frankie Lou stories. I believe she was a WAC in WW2.

Frankie Lou and John Fraser were married for a time, later she married R A Miller- I think I'm telling that right.

There was a Roy Melvin who played in the KM band. Several years later I was out lithographing and ran into him working in a music store.
