The Native Americas wear feathers on their heads. The cowboy wears a cowboy hat and sheepskin chaps. Another man, probably an announcer, stands on a platform in the right background. The audience sits in bleachers covered by a large tent in the background. A large building with small awnings over several of its windows is in the distance above the tent.Physical Description1 photoprint : black and white |12 x 19 cm (4 3/4 x 7 1/2 in.)Born-Digital or AnalogAnalogSubjectIndians of North America--Clothing and dressWild west showsCowboysBuffalo Bill, 1846-1917Buffalo Bill's Wild West ShowCollectionPhotographs - Western HistoryRelated MaterialImage File: ZZR700105719Type of MaterialPhotographic printsDigital Version Created FromSalsbury collection, Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, album 6Original Material Found in CollectionSalsbury collection, Buffalo Bill's Wild West ShowNotesSalsbury Collection Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show Rehearsal Pictures 1901 typed on first page of album|on final page of album "Cubans actual war veterans of Spanish-American War Color Guard under Gen.
