Legends of the
Old West Poster Collection

When Buffalo Bill Cody died in 1917 he was the most recognized person on Earth.
For the better part of 30 years Cody traveled the world with his wild west show - trying to show the beauty, majesty, brutality, and courage that was part of the western frontier. Such is and has been the power of the Old West to hold peoples' admiration and imagination.

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.

Yellowstone Kelly
Luther Sage "Yellowstone" Kelly was born in Geneva, New York State, in 1849. He joined the Union Army near the end of the Civil war and finished his enlistment in wild Army outposts in Minnesota and the Dakota's. After his army stint he headed further west and in the following decade he became as familiar with the Upper Missouri and Yellowstone River valleys as any white man of his time.

Kelly was well educated and very well read, and apparently was prone to quoting Shakespeare when the mood took him. He was famous during his life and known to President Theodoe Roosevelt, and other famous people of the day, including Buffalo Bill Cody. When Cody was finally successful in getting the Yellowstone River valley declared America's first National Park, in 1876, Yellowstone Kelly was the man chosen to be the first Park Ranger.

The Sundance Kid and Etta Place

It's unlikely there's a more shadowy figure in the Old West, then Etta Place. There is no doubt that this was not her real name, as Place was the Maiden name of Harry's (the Sundance Kid) mother, and other women that were associated with the Wild Bunch, used the alias also. Virtually nothing is known of her other than the fact she was reputed to be a school teacher, but there's some that say she was a Texas prostitute that Butch Cassidy took under his wing and gave a fake history as a school Marm, so she could have a new start. A stunning, timeless, beauty - she was seldom seen without the Sundance Kid, and they often traveled together as man and wife.

Young Guns Circa 1870

Charley Utter, Wild Bill Hickok, Buffalo Bill Cody, Texas Jack Omohundro, and Elisha Green. The photo that this poster was built around was originally taken in the early 1870s. At the time these men were performing in Ned Butlines "Scouts of the Prairie". As bad as most of the acting was - Hickok's stood out as the worst. The whole idea of acting was disagreeable to Wild Bill and he left after about 6 months. Hickoks' disdain can be seen on his face in this poster, and notice how carefully the other men have their firearms staged around them - except Wild Bill: He's stood his long arm upside down!

Old West Poster
The Murder of Wild Bill Hickok

Frame is not included. Used for illustration purposes only

Back in May, 2006 we were rounded up to work on a re-enactment of the moment when Jack McCall walked into Tom Nuttal's #10 Saloon on Aug 2 1876, in Deadwood, Dakota Territory, and murdered Wild Bill Hickok.

This painting by Canadian artist Ken Dewar, was the end result of the afternoon of filming in Heritage Park, an authentic 19th century town, in Calgary. 130 years to the day that McCall did his cowardly deed the painting was unveiled in front of City Hall in Deadwood, South Dakota, on August 2, 2006.
