Notes: Checklist incomplete. For color combinations, there are reddish-brown fronts with blue backs or blue fronts with reddish-brown backs. It looks like Exhibit just reversed the colors to create two color versions of each card. There are also yellow fronts with purplish-blue backs.
These are double-sided cards, with four miniature scenes on the reverse side, some of these being movie scenes starring a particular cowboy, while others are rodeo views. It looks like there are 16 different cards in this set.
