An African Gorilla full body mounted stands 5 feet 4 inches tall and the world's largest steer head is also displayed with horns measureing 7 feet 9 inches tip to tip, 11 feet along curve of horns and 21 inches around base of horns. The frames on wall pictured on this card contain designs formed of the rattles of thousands of Diamond-Back Rattle Snakes. A mounted Texas Armadillo is pictured along with Mexican hand-made pottery, drawn-work and Serape, representing some of the typical curios and souvenirs of the South-West and Mexico.
