Brad just take it down if it is too racy!
" 'Safety first' is the motto of Miss Mary Jayne of Keith's circuit. Mary Jayne, seated in rocking chair with pistol strapped to her knee, claiming exemption from concealed weapon regulation by saying her thirty-two isn't a concealed weapon in these days of knee-length skirts."

Racy? We post videos of Rita Hayworth dancing. For health reasons of course. Watching Rita dance is good for the heart!

is that holster held in place with a rubber band?

Looks like a 25 Auto in a holster for something bigger. not a .32.

But, don't mess with her.

At the casting bench in the sky. RIP Bret.
Considering the era that was shot in, that may be the first "gun porn" pic! I'm sure her parents were appalled and embarrassed!

Neat picture Jim. It appears those are sheared beaver plates hanging in the background.

Bill,
Looks like a piece of ribbon holding the holster in place for the photo. I agree, she is serious.

Yeah, Ian. Looking again, I can see the garter, and a bit of a weave to the
ribbon. You use the holster you have and the gun you have. I think I see
a horse on the grips, so Colt .25 Auto.

Haha,I looked at the finish on the rocker part of the chair..... like a moth to a flame.

Edit:And feel really confident, knowing it's history,both in colour and application.Along with it's position within the industry. Thanks for the brain jog.
