Following the success of Handsome Brady and Whiskey Bill, sculptor Claude Bell introduced Ghost Town guests to the bench characters of Marilyn and Cecelia in August 1954. Few realize the two Calico Belles are modeled after Calico Saloon entertainers Marilyn Schuler and Cecelia Peterson. Schuler joined the Farm family in February 1953 as a professional nightclub dancer and mother of two. Peterson was a chanteuse from the nightclub circuit and performed the old classics at the Calico Saloon. Schuler left the Farm in 1958 and Peterson retired in 1956, but both left a lasting impression for millions of guests in their bench characters.
