[Large group of men standing around bulls in a pen]

documentary heritage
  • Description

    Cattle are tightly packed into pens. There are many pens that are joined together. There are groups of men standing on the top of wooden planks. All of the men appear to be dressed in casual attire, and are all wearing hats. There are two men standing on a wooden plank across the pen, and both are each holding a long stick, possibly used to move, point to, or to prod the cattle with. Both of the men have a lit cigarette hanging out of their mouths'.

    The man standing on the right hand side, is also holding a pail in his left hand. There are also two men visible in the crowd that appear to be each holding a whip. This is possibly a cattle sale. There are trees and hills in the background.
