Harry Carey's Trading Post -- August 20, 2025

Photoplay, August, 1925

Harry Carey and his wife Olive opened "an old-fashioned store" near their ranch in San Francisquito Canyon. We see Harry with his son, Harry Junior, who was called Dobey or Dobe because his red hair was the color of adobe. It is interesting that the Careys brought in Navajo women to weave rugs. They might have found some people from local tribes who could weave beautiful baskets.
