Notes
Rubber stamp on verso of typed label reads: Sep 1, 1939 F. H. F.; Title and date hand-written on back of photoprint.; Typed label with photoprint reads: The annual Trinidad Roundup and Rodeo, one of the West's best known smaller wild west shows, was held this year concurrently with the reunion of confederate veterans at Trinidad, Colorado. The reunion visitors found the western setting highly entertaining and took in the rodeo along with all other local attractions and points of interest. This photo shows one of the rodeo performers riding a brono (sic) --- Hank Mills on Wagonwheel, one of the buckingest horses on the rodeo circuit. This is the same show, in general, which will appear next winter at Madison Square Garden in New York City.; R7100018313
