The cowboy outfit

I can tell by your outfit
That you are a cowboy.
You can tell by my outfit
That I'm a cowboy too.
You can tell by our outfits
That we are both cowboys.
If you get and outfit
You can be a cowboy too.

-Smothers Brothers circa 1965

NEW ADDITIONS

Here is another one from an itinerant photographer. This one has very elaborate costuming.

...This one has not.

I usually try to include only photographs
from the mid 1950's or before
but this one seemed very special.

Itinerant photographers brought a pony around to neighborhoods for the purpose of selling photographs to dad and mom. They would lead the horse up, plunk a kid on it and what mom could resist having a photograph? Some brought lots of costuming too. Here we have chaps, hat, rifle and scarf. The process was called "kidnapping" in the industry. (Thanks to opiejeanne for the background information)

Howdy. Come up and sit a spell.
