Jayne Mansfield at the Palm Springs Police Show

The Palm Springs Police Show was an annual event, first starting out in 1949. Some of the biggest stars partook in the event over the years. The annual Police Show was always a big hit and would draw in sell out crowds. The event raised funds for local law enforcement charities. In the early 60's Jayne had the privilege of performing in the show. Not only did she perform in the stage event, she also rode in the parade with her family and was named the Rodeo Queen, unfortunately though whoever was in charge of the name banner misspelled her name. She also rode a horse in the rodeo and let her Mother Vera run loose backstage in the evening. As you will see in the following footage Vera gets a bit bossy with a reporter when wanting to greet Red while the reporter was talking with him.

Our latest video is footage of Jayne Mansfield at the Palm Springs Police Show and we have shared it on YouTube for your viewing pleasure.
