Another man on horseback is holding up a flag on the end of a stick. He will lower the flag when the tying is complete. The cowboys roping & tying skill will be timed when the cowboy raises his hands & the flag is lowered. Another man on horseback is behind & also a man walking in the arena. Behind a board fence are vintage cars. Written in white on original negative on bottom: "Tying a roped Steer Copyright 1909 by P H Healy" Good condition.
