Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated January 12, 1961 reads, "Jan and Lora Teige were excited about their first 'big break,' a contract to appear on the June Allyson TV show. So, like all good workers, the month-old twins went downtown Wednesday and got their Social Security cards. The twins, born Dec. 5 to Mr. and Mrs. William Teige, 4961 Coldwater Canyon Ave., Van Nuys, got the job after 50 sets of twins 'auditioned.' They will receive $50 a day each - for a 20-minute work day - and will be driven to and from the studio in a limousine with a chauffeur and trained nurse."
