Cowboy Kid Riding a Mustang, Christmas 1969

Cowboy Kid Riding a Mustang, Christmas 1969
A Vintage Photos Theme Park photo for the theme of cowboys and/or cowgirls.

In this photo dated "Jan. 70," a young boy is wearing a cowboy hat and holster as he rides "Marvel the Mustang," a Marx toy advertised as "The Real Galloping Horse" (see Marvel the Galloping Mustang on the Virtual Marx Museum for more information).

Notice the TV set with rabbit-ears antenna on the left, the decorated Christmas tree behind the boy, and the boxes stacked on the chair on the right. The boxes include one for a Tonka toy car carrier and another for a "Reflection 3 Pc. Chip 'n' Dip Set."

For a cowgirl with her toy horse, see Riding Toward the Sun: Dale Evans and Buttermilk.

What so many boys wanted to be before Star Wars arrived on the scene!
This little boy reminds me of Rick. Is that you, Rick? ; )
The slides are great. Is she riding the horse that sort of bounced up and down?

Thanks, Deborah, he's as fierce-looking as I was but at Christmas of 1969, I was getting ready to enter the army.

Nice one, Alan. Looks like your cowhand had a very good Christmas. And the little girl had an amazing backyard for playing Cowgirl.

Thanks, Rick! It's remarkable how many cowguys and -gals there were in those days!
