Available in this lot is a framed, L. A. Huffman, gelatin silver photo titled, "Killing A Young Beef At The Round Up". Laton Alton Huffman (1854- 1931) was an American photographer of Frontier and Native American life. He is most known for his photographs of Cowboys and Native Americans. This piece displays three cowboys with a steer between them. Two of the cowboys are shown on horseback and have lassoed the steer.

The photo is set into a wooden frame with a tan border around the photo. The piece shows good condition overall, with some light wear across the frame.
