| Description |
The following includes the transcript and a video clip from an oral history interview with Calvin Grant. |
| Biographical/Historical Note |
The Ogden Union Stockyard was a key fixture in the largest livestock market west of Denver during its heyday from 1916 to 1971. The activities at the yard brought Ogden national attention as a livestock center. The rise of the livestock shows, auctions, etc. at the site spurred the local and regional livestock industry, thereby physically shaping the development of the agricultural landscape both near and far. This collection documents the history through photographs, newspaper articles, and oral histories. |

| Description |
The following is a video clip from an oral history interview with Calvin Grant. "Well, downstairs in the exchange building they had a cafe, and they also had a poker room... Well on Mondays, which was sale day, that's when they had the big boys. And no I didn't participate in that, I was just a kid. And that was a pretty high stakes outfit on Mondays. But then, during the week, the peons could play and I participated in that." |
