Color: Black; White
A black and white photograph of a rodeo at a racetrack, July 19, 1930. The track is across the center with many people on horseback lined up behind it. One of the riders at the center holds an American flag. Many spectators, most of which wear hats, are at the left of the foreground standing or sitting in the stands. A large open field and two trees are in the background. On the back is a portion of a bear-shaped stamp with the words, "GENUINE / GUARANTEED / JUL 19 1930 / BEAR PHOTO SERVICE." The photograph was housed in Agnes Temple's album, which is item 96.7.94.1, along with many other photographs, which span 96.7.1.1-.93.1. Contact sheets 2000.159.1.1-.8 show the original positioning of the images within the album. With only some yellowing of the paper, the artifact is in good condition.
