Christian,  They are both introductions of Nate Rudolph.  But there's another 
connection.  Cross # 65 appears to have produced both PT (65-29) and the 
pollen parent of PINK SLEIGH (65-50 which makes PS a sibling cross).  PINK SLEIGH 
is the pod parent of PINK ANGEL.  (My take on reading the linage)

PINK TAFFETA and PINK SLEIGH figure in the parentage of many modern pinks 
including but not limited to VANITY & BEVERLY SILLS.  

PINK TAFFETA
(Rudolph, R. `65). 65-29. TB, 31", EM,, R3L.
"S rose-pink (Wilson 427/1); F rose-pink (427/2). 63-29 (Fay 56-06: sib to 
Arctic Flame x 59-31) X 61-42 (Pink Ice x 59-55). HM `69, JC `69. Moldovan `68." 


PINK ANGEL
(N. Rudolph, R. 1972). Sdlg. 70-75. TB, 29" (74 cm), E.
"S. light pink (RHS 49C); F. light pink, blending to pale pink at center, 
deeper pink haft; sharp pink beard. Pink Sleigh X Cream Taffeta. Rudolph 1973."

PINK SLEIGH
(N. Rudolph, R. 1970). Sdlg. 67-40. TB, 30" (76 cm), M.
"S. blue-pink with touch of lavender (Wilson 530/1); F. blue-pink (530/2) 
with lighter area at center; ruffled, laced; red beard. 65-50 X Pink Taffeta. 
Rudolph 1970."

Hope this helps.
