He wears a buckskin coat with tassles, a large square buckle on his belt, thigh boots and a hat, probably a Stetson. Lillie, a member of the show's cast, is seated in the center. He wears a buckskin coat with tassles; his hat is decorated with a pattern. On the right is Charles J. "Buffalo Jones" Jones of Garden City, Kansas, wearing sheepskin chaps and holding a rope in his left hand. He also wears a leather coat with tassles.
