Authentic Wanted Posters

   

These are exact replicas of actual Wanted Posters, Railway Circulars, Pinkerton Circulars, Exhibit Notices, and Vigilante Notices from about 1849 to 1900. Once a Wanted Poster Reward got big enough it usually resulted in the outlaws death or capture. Jesse James is a fine example of this. 

The Killing {Assassination?} of Jesse James
The James-Younger Gang seldom strayed far from Missouri - except to do their robberies; confident their friends and family would hide them out. Once the reward got to 25,000 for Jesse it was just a matter of time before the dirty little coward (Bob Ford), would kill Mister Howard (Jesse James), as he stood on a chair to straighten a picture, in his own home. As word spread of Jesse's death - Bob and his brother Charlie raced to the telegraph office and cabled Governor Crittenden: "I have killed Jesse James. St. Joseph. Bob Ford". Jesse's two murdering cousins rushed back to the James House, now swamped with curious onlookers. Spotting the local authorities, the brothers rushed up and staked their claim to the infamous deed.

"I'm Bob Ford," gasped Bob, " I shot him".

"I'm Charlie Ford," gushed his brother, "I saw him".

Our poster paper is heavy duty stock, special ordered by the ream, and is the closest we have found to actual parchment paper that would have been used in the 19th century. It's heavy weight and won't get torn or blown off  the hitching post! We don't stain it (reducing it's life) all our aging is done with graphics - making them crisp and clear. Posters are all ~ 11 x 17 and are shipped flat.

Any two of our 11" x 17" posters for $20 Bucks.

To order any two posters - find your first poster then click on the "Order Any Two" link and select your second western poster from the drop down menu. Overseas buyers please read this.

$500 For Jesse James

This poster and the one below were issued within a few years of each other. At 500 dollars it's plain that Jesse was just considered a nuisance. A few years later - it's a different story: The reward for his death or capture has placed Jesse at the top of the outlaw heap in the Old West.

Pony Express

Pony Express Recruitment Poster

From April 1860 to October 1861 the Pony Express was the fastest way to get your message from the East to the West; and back again. The "young, skinny, wiry fellows" all had to weight less than 125 lbs, and had to cover the 1966 miles from St. Joseph, Missouri to Sacramento, California in ten days. Through every imaginable type of hardship they rode across the States of Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, Nevada, and California. In October, 1861 the Telegraph Wire was completed to the West Coast and the Pony Express was finished.

The Slim Jim Holster - the Classic side-arm holster of the early west.

Most men - including Texas Rangers - who could afford a holster would have used this style in the early days of the western frontier. Shown here with a Remington 36 cal. black powder pistol, with a 7 1/2" barrel. Holster above is a left draw and can be worn on the left hip, on the right for a cross draw or on the right for a right handed "Twist" or "Cavalry" or "Hickok" draw. Shown plain - no adornment - in a deep saddle brown color. Our Holsters are Top Quality - made for life-long use. We will custom make to accommodate the make and calibre of your side arm.

It will keep your face and neck in constant shade - regardless of the position of the sun, and your eyes and lips will say thankee-thankee.

Longfellow researched the designs based on historical photos and original mail order catalogues from the late 1800's and the early decades of the 20th Century. Of particular help was the Smithsonian Website, the Library, and the archives of the Glenbow Museum in Calgary. And of course those great Hollywood Westerns.
