1946 Clackamas County Sheriff’s Posse Sixth Annual All Western Horse Show

On August 31st and September 1st 1946 the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Posse held their sixth annual All-Western Horse Show at the Clackamas County Fair Grounds in Canby, Oregon. This brochure of the event was found at a yard sale.

This is a great resource for vintage advertising. Interestingly a lot of the advertisers are in Portland and Gresham and not just in Clackamas County. The other great thing about this are the names here for genealogists, both in ads and participants.
