Description
This collection includes approximately 40,000 photographs by commercial photographer Ralph Morris, who worked in the Los Angeles area from 1939-1981. His advertising and industrial clients included department stores, restaurants, the automobile and petroleum industries as well as business executives. Also included is the Luckhaus Studio collection of architecture, fashion, the movie industry, sports and street scenes, images which Morris obtained in 1939.
A young, shaggy foal stands beside its mother as a little cowgirl in golden ringlets sits bareback astride the mare. A stablehand holds the reins as he poses the group for a photograph. The mare is a paint pony. Farm buildings are in the background.
