Description: WEST TEXAS - Roping a Calf - 1934 - cowboy, western: Calf roping, also known as tie-down roping, is a rodeo event that features a calf and a rider mounted on a horse. The goal of this timed event is for the rider to catch the calf by throwing a loop of rope from a lariat around its neck, dismount from the horse, run to the calf, and restrain it by tying three legs together, in as short a time as possible. A variant on the sport, with fewer animal welfare controversies, is breakaway roping, where the calf is roped, but not tied. The event derives from the duties of actual working cowboys, which often required catching and restraining calves for branding or medical treatment. Ranch hands took pride in the speed with which they could rope and tie calves which soon turned their work into informal contests. This Linen Era postcard, published in 1934, is in good condition. Genuine Curteich-Chicago. “C.T. Art Colortone”. No. 4A-H1933. Distributed by McCormick Co. Amarillo, Texas.
