At the Brownwood Rodeo in 1920, Curley Seale, one of two hard riding sisters from the Seale Ranch in Baird, captured the heart of the crowd, and first money, at the steer riding competition. In 1920 this must have been a pretty sensational piece of news. The photo above was taken at the event, and captures Curley and her older sister Billie sitting on a fence, waiting their turn to ride. They’re wearing jeans, bandanas and hats, and both are smoking cigarettes. Standing with them is the rodeo star of the day, Wild Cat Bill.
