The Stockman's had alot of billboards as depicted on their other ashtrays, matchbooks.
The billboards had a large bovine and a cowboy on a horse.
The Crumley bunch that had The Ranch Inn and Commercial Hotel along with a huge ranch apparently had a great sense of humor.
One dark and dreary night (as the story goes) they got a bunch of their customers all drunked up and sent them out to all the Stockman's billboards and slapped the Crumley Brand on all the Stockman's bovines.
Nice old shot of the place below.
Maybe Pam will post a pic of her little Stockman's chalkware Jackpot Winner statue.
