1846 Bill Buffalo Cody Colonel Frederick Frontiersman Post Card Showman Will I Am
EDITORS COMMENTS
"This postcard image features Colonel William Frederick Cody, also known as Buffalo Bill, a legendary frontiersman and showman of the American West. Born in Iowa in 1846, Cody's life was filled with adventure and excitement from an early age. He gained fame as a scout and hunter for the U.S. Army during the Indian Wars, and later became a star performer in the Wild West shows he founded. The photograph, taken in 1917, captures Cody in his later years, with his distinctive handlebar mustache and piercing gaze. He is dressed in the attire of a frontier scout, complete with a wide-brimmed hat, fringed shirt, and leather vest. The background of the postcard is adorned with images of tepees, horses, and other iconic symbols of the American West, further emphasizing Cody's connection to the frontier. Buffalo Bill's Wild West shows were a sensation, traveling across the United States and Europe and featuring a diverse cast of performers, including Native American tribes, cowboys, and sharpshooters. Cody's shows brought the excitement and romance of the frontier to audiences, who were captivated by the thrilling displays of horsemanship, marksmanship, and Native American culture. This postcard is a fascinating glimpse into the life of a true American icon, a man who embodied the spirit of the frontier and helped shape the way the world saw the American West. It is a reminder of the rich history and traditions that have shaped our country, and a testament to the enduring allure of the American West." Mary Evans Picture Library/Mary Evans Prints Online.
