RODEO MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING Did you know that Rodeo came from the Castilian tongue of the Spanish language and meant “Roundup” Or what a McGonical is? Or a Stroud layout Or the Roman Sand and who introduced it? Or who is considered the First Cowboy Champion? Well, read on cause I have indexed every name and rodeo and hoss named in this story entitled RODEO THE WEST’S OLDEST SPORT where the author, in this unusual piece attempts to give the history of the rodeo. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the origin of the Rodeos and Wild West Shows of yesterday are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. RODEO THE WEST’S OLDEST SPORT by B. Morando Folks, sooner or later – Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer’s dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, it’s worth all the time I spend.
