Roy Brabham was the builder of the wagons and a driver on the Oregon Cavalcade wagon train. This wagon train followed the Oregon Trail from Indpendence MO to Independence OR during the Oregon Cenntennial in 1959. He is holding 'Racket' the racoon. The small animal was presented to Braham, en route along the Oregon Trail, and is now the mascot of the wagoneers.
