The Bluffers

Scope and Content Notes

Leather album page with a photograph of a bear and a buffalo bronze. The remarks of the photograph include, "These two animals are the biggest we have and when they meet, they are so evenly matched as to strength that they just blow and roar at each other and that is all there is to it, usually. They just bluff as each is afraid of the other."
