Caption:
"Pony Photo. Thousands of photographs have been taken of St. Joseph's Pony Express rider statue in Civic Center and Mike Kunkel of Mishawaka, Ind., joined list this week as one of the most impressed with St. Joseph history. In the above photograph, he takes movies of the famed mail express rider. 'I just didn't realize the importance and interest in the Pony Express until visiting your main museum and the Pony Express Museum,' he said, adding he learned Jesse James, another of St. Joseph's past, was 'quite a guy.' Mr. Kunkel said he was very impressed with the St. Joseph Museum, saying it was 'one of the finest I have ever visited.'Made/Created
