"Sundown on a Century"

Made in 1989 for South Dakota Centennial

The wheat represents the farmers.

The rope around the edge represents the cattlemen.

The corner design represents the five-pointed crocus, the state flower of South Dakota, inviting everyone from all corners of the world to visit the state of

South Dakota...the land of infinite variety.

Design taken from a picture of a windmill on the ranch.
