General View of the Show.
Nice collection of Barbed Wires. Note the horseshoe cowboy with barbed wire lassoo.
Close up of a "shortie" collection.
Wires for sale, mounted on white-faced board, and with identification details on the labels.
Interesting display in wooden case with sack-cloth backing.
Wires lined up on a table.
Interesting collection of splices.
Another collection of "shorties" in a wooden case with leather strips holding the wires.
More wires for sale.
Incredible home-made carriage-wheel revolving display. The whole thing disassembles for transit.
