Guy Mansberger, Keeper for the Cazadores Gun Club, kneels down over several dead ducks as he butchers them. He looks to the camera and crouches down; one hand is raised in motion and the other rests on a duck. He wears striped overalls, a white shirt and a hat. In front of him, a narrow wooden plank runs horizontally across the image with a pile of dead ducks lying in front of and to the right of him. Lying on the ground at left, there is a small wooden box with "S" painted on it. At far left on the planks, there is a bag. Behind Mr. Mansberger in the distance, there is a chicken coop on the left and a barn (partial view) stands on the right.
Text from negative sleeve: 302. Cazadores Gun Club. About 1912. Three pictures of our Keeper, Guy Mansberger. He left the club about 1915 and I heard he had gone to Hemet, California, and opened a store. Might have been San Jacinto. 3 negatives.
