|
Clear, practical and decorative, a cowboy’s cattle brand was often linked to objects familiar to him or that he encountered in his day-to-day activities. Pitchforks, spurs, steer skulls, letters, numbers and other motifs were frequently incorporated into brands.
With this instructive and entertaining book, tenderfeet of all ages will learn how to read brands and recognize symbols known to every ranch hand. You’ll find out how to distinquish the lazy R from the flying R, the quarter moon from the quarter circle and much more. You’ll even learn to design your own brands. Additional chapters explain why branding became an important practice and what brands were commonly used by rustlers.
