This image depicts a brochure with details about the 1953 Horn in the West play. The brochure includes four images, one drawing, and several text blocks. The images include an aerial view of Boone, the Blowing Rock, and two pictures from the set of the Horn in the West play. One is a picture of the actor portraying Daniel Boone holding a rifle and warming his hands by a fire. The text in the brochure describes how prospective viewers can purchase tickets, how they can get hotel rooms through the Horn in the West staff, and a brief plot summary for the play. At the bottom of the brochure "Horn in the west (historical drama). N" is written in red pen and "June 1953" is written in pencil. Image 012-b includes seven images, two maps, and one drawing. One map is of the Daniel Boone Theater's seating arrangements with each respective section labeled with a ticket price.

Four images are pictures of scenes from the Horn in the West play. Actors are portrayed in various costumes including some in heavily caricatured Native American outfits.
