Item description from seller

A photograph, taken by University of Wyoming professor Burt C. Buffum, of rodeo cowboy Guy Holt riding "Steamboat." The caption reads: "Guy Holt Worlds Champion bronco buster riding ‘Steamboat’ (said to be the hardest horse to ride known.) Laramie Wyo, Sept 22 – 03. Photo by B.C. Buffum." Steamboat rode for fifteen years around the US and Canada, twice earning Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo’s "Worst Bucking Horse of the Year" award. This photo of Holt riding Steamboat is the inspiration for the University of Wyoming’s logo. Wrinkling, slight damage; left corners missing. Very good plus. Single photograph measuring 6 ½ x 8 ½ inches. Manuscript caption verso.
