Title	Cody at peephole
Summary	William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody looks through a peephole in the arena tent for Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Cody wears a buckskin coat with tassles and thigh boots. He also wears a hat, possibly a Stetson. An unidentified person stands looking through the peephole with Cody. A group of Native Americans and cavalrymen on horseback is in the background. All of the Native Americans wear feather headdresses and carry long spears. Cody reportedly liked to watch the progress of the Wild West Show through the peephole. The announcer and Cody also reportedly worked out a system whereby the announcer would signal Cody when it was time to prepare for the next act.
