DescriptionAt left are two wax figures made to look like television stars Dale and Roy Rogers and at right is a figure of his white horse Trigger, leaning over the top of a gate. She is wearing a pink and white dress along with white cowboy boots and hat. Standing slightly behind her with his hand on his holstered gun, he is wearing a western ensemble of tan and white with a red kerchief and red, tan and cream-colored boots and a white hat. They are posed in a wooden structure that looks like a barn, with a pole bisecting the composition. At right is the stabled horse, its head tilted toward the viewer.
