Harry the Horse jumping with "Yahoo" Signs

CS.2025.32.45

Photo of Harry the Horse mascot jumping with "Yahoo" signs. Harry's whole body is visible, and he is jumping, with his legs and arms spread. He is wearing his usual uniform: white western hat, red bandana, red and white gingham shirt, belt and buckle, jeans, furry chaps, western boots, and white fringed gloves with red palms and "CS" logos on the cuffs. He is holding two signs, one in each hand. They have blue backgrounds, red lettering, and a border designed to look like rope. The sign in his right hand reads "YA," and the sign in his left reads "HOO." Harry is posing in front of a white studio backdrop.

Harry the Horse's first public appearance was on March 14, 1985, at the Calgary Stampede's Rodeo Royal. He remains one of the Stampede's most recognized mascots.

This photograph was taken as part of a series honouring his 30th anniversary.
