- Tobacco Spear, circa 1960 - Raising tobacco required significant human labor before mechanization. At harvest time, workers cut the leaves from Burley tobacco plants using special knives. They pierced the leaves with this conical-shaped metal spear affixed to the end of a stick. Then, after the leaves dried in the field, they moved the full sticks to tobacco barns to finish the curing process.

Advertisers, armed with new methods of color printing, bombarded potential customers with trade cards. Americans enjoyed and often saved the vibrant little advertisements found in product packages or distributed by local merchants.

- Crow People, Wyoming Territory, 1882 - The Apsaalooke (Crow) occupied the game rich lands in the Yellowstone River basin of Wyoming and Montana. By the second half of the 1800s, encroachment by other Native American tribes and the influx of white settlers constricted the size of their traditional hunting grounds. Treaties signed with the U.S. government in 1868 and 1882 ultimately confined the Apsaalooke to a reservation in south central Montana.
