The spirit of the authentic American Cowgirl has particularly strong roots in Oregon, yet she rode in arenas all across the nation and made headlines from coast to coast, in Canada and abroad. She is America's first professionally paid female athlete. Her appeal, however, is not limited to state, region, or national boundaries. She is truly a universal, global symbol of freedom of spirit.
The museum quality, fine art prints offered on this website document an era of women's history (c. 1910-1930) when local and circuit-riding cowgirls gathered throughout the country to compete in rodeo. The images are derived from the rare historical archives of the Pendleton Cowgirl Collection. This magnificent collection of images truly is "A Collectable National Treasure."

To some, rodeo is a sport. To others, it's a business. But to most competitors, rodeo is simply a way of life. Professional rodeo is the only major competitive sport that has evolved from a working lifestyle, and its development over the years is brought to life in the ProRodeo Hall of Fame and Museum of the American Cowboy in Colorado Springs, Co.

The Hall, located adjacent to the National Headquarters of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, is the only heritage center in the world devoted exclusively to professional rodeo - America’s original sport.
