Identifier

Description
Captioned “98 / OLIVER” & “ALEC LE FRAMBEAU ON ALBERTA KID - CALGARY STAMPEDE.” Alex is bucked high in the air while riding Alberta Kid in the Saddle Bronc competition at the 1924 Calgary Stampede. The dark-coloured horse is bucking rightward with Alex almost vertical above the horse with his butt well above the saddle. Two mounted cowboys are close behind, and behind them is a white fence with buildings behind it. They include the long rectangular building with three smokestacks, and the front of three triangular-roofed ones, which may be barns. The contestants database gives his name as Alex Laframbois, and it does not list him as riding Alberta Kid.
