Photograph Postcard

Scope and Content Notes

This is a photo postcard, printed in color with a reproduction of a Charles M. Russell watercolor of a saloon scene with three men lounging at a bar while another fires at the feet of still another. Words at the bottom read, "Dance! You short-horn dance!" At the top it reads, "101 Ranch, Bliss, O.T." and "I find cow-boys a social set, at one of their 'gatherings' I was invited to dance." Reverse side is blank but has Charles M. Russell's signature buffalo skull in the stamp location.
