In a clothing store in Breckenridge, Colorado, eight men in suits and hats sit and stand around a drum shaped parlor stove at the center of this well stocked business. Piles of folded trousers are in the left foreground, shelves are loaded with hat and shoeboxes, and mittens and gaiters hang in the upper right. Seven taxidermied deer heads with antlers are at intervals around the perimeter. The back wall is hung with numerous posters, advertisments and charts. A metal cannister and spray hose fire extinguisher is mounted on the wall in the right background, its label reads "Rex." A sign above it reads "Rex for fire only."
