Summary	Nate Salsbury stands in the left center of a large group of men in front of a tent of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show while on tour in England in 1887. Salsbury, wearing a silk top hat and suit, was the principal owner and manager of the show. He is pointing his cane to a large piece of paper held by John Burke, press agent for the shows. Sitting on the ground on either side of Burke are, at left, Albert Scheibel, the show's secretary and, at right, Jule Keen, the show's treasurer. Numerous other men, most wearing derby hats, are gathered around them. A stuffed buffalo head is mounted above the entrance to the tent in the background.
