This is a vintage Western cowboy ranch brand tally board, likely dating from the mid-20th century. Crafted from a single piece of stained wood, it features eleven metal-rimmed indentations, ten of which are arranged in a grid on the main body, with one additional indentation at the top. The number '50' is hand-painted in black on the front, indicating its use for counting, possibly cattle or other livestock. The reverse side features a carved 'RR' brand, suggesting a specific ranch or owner. A leather strap is attached at the top for hanging or carrying, adding to its authentic ranch utility. This piece measures approximately 6 inches long by 3 inches wide. Condition is good, showing honest wear consistent with its age and use, including surface scratches, minor dings to the wood, and expected patina to the metal inserts. The leather strap is intact and supple. This tally board represents a tangible piece of Western Americana and ranching history, perfect for collectors of cowboy memorabilia or rustic decor.
