Lot #65 (Sale Order 74 of 498)

Offered for sale in this lot is a wonderful Missouri War Axe Tomahawk made by Dunlap & Florer Trading Post at Pawhuska, Oklahoma and sold to local Osage and Pawnee Indians in the region. The piece is said to date to circa 1850-1860’s and is truly a museum quality weapon. The war relic features an iron worked head with weeping heart cut out made by the Dunlap & Florer Trading Post at Pawhuska, Oklahoma. Pawhusha, Oklahoma is the heart of the Osage Nation, and Dunlap & Florer Co. manufactured and sold the heads to the local Osage Indians, who would then decorate their own handles. This is an excellent striking weapon, with a foreboding presence and look and would truly be a great addition to any major private or museum collection. The term "Missouri War Axe" was coined by American Indian weapons collectors to describe this particular style of tomahawk. They were first discovered by Lewis & Clark on their 1804-1805 expedition financed by Thomas Jefferson, which sent them exploring up the upper Missouri River basin. Meriwether Lewis wrote about these weapons and sketched one in his journal, stating that the local Indians were fervently requesting the expedition blacksmith to make additional examples for them. He went as far as to state that it was the only item the Indians were willing to trade corn, grain and other expedition necessities for and that manufacture and trade of additional axes is what solely got the explorers through the winter of 1805. This piece was pictured in the 2009 book "The Mark Francis Collection of American Indian Art" on page 123 figure 194, and in "The Missouri War Axe: War Tomahawk of the Plains and Prairies" (2010) by Mark Francis on page 59 figure 70 and page 70 figure 85.

J. Wilson Pawnee Pipe Tomahawk c. 1850-60 RARE

Lot #83 (Sale Order 94 of 498)

This is an absolute masterpiece early authentic Pawnee Plains Native American Indian pipe tomahawk for the advanced collector. This exact tomahawk was found to be an authentic example by the American Indian Experts at Skinner Inc Auctions and was listed in their May 6, 2016 sale as a J. Wilson Third Quarter 19th Century piece with an $8,000 estimate (it is shown on their website under auction 2893B Lot 156). The pipe tomahawk was made by documented 19th Century blacksmith John Wilson of Chadron, Nebraska. This piece dates to circa 1850-1860’s and is the single cleanest and most pristine Wilson example in any private or museum collection offered for sale. Very few J. Wilson tomahawk heads have been known to exist and are very recognizable for their bold design. Wilson’s heads were all hand forged and have specific shape and incredible artful style. He sold to local Plains Native American Indians including the Sioux, Pawnee and Crow Indians. This piece was attributed to a Pawnee Indian named “Laughing Dog” when it was purchased by known collector Mark Francis at a Sante Fe artifacts sale in the 1990’s. The haft is a solid ash wood rectangular hot file-branded design running the entire length of the piece. The fantastic hand-forged head is secured into place with a poured pewter gasket and end cap. The original clean out plug is scarcely still intact. The piece is adorned with a dangle drop of old early authentic trade silk ribbons, yarn and a tarnished brass thimble tied onto the haft. The whole piece has a nice smooth patina and has a terrific art appeal and form. The piece is shown in excellent museum quality condition and is the single best-known Wilson example in existence. The piece has been documented as being authentic by Skinner Inc. and pictured in the 2009 publication book, "The Mark Francis Collection of American Indian Art" on page 96 figure 157. Heritage Auction has sold to J. Wilson Tomahawks both in their September 29th 2006 sale, one sold for $9,560 and the other for $8,962.50. Heritage Auction had the below statement about J. Wilson Tomahawks such as this: The majority of pipe tomahawks were made by frontier blacksmiths who labored in obscurity. By and large, little is known about them and their craft. Wilson embellished the classic features of the Plains tomahawk with stamping, engraving, and inlay. His tomahawk blades are quite distinctive and readily identifiable. Examples are present in a number of important collections. Harold Peterson illustrates two Wilson tomahawks in his classic study (See: Peterson, Harold, American Indian Tomahawks, Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation, 1971, item 188, p. 118 and item 198, p. 120). Both tomahawks are in the collections of the National Museum of the American Indian. Another example is rocker engraved with the words "Made by J. Wilson" along the edge of the blade. (The Heritage Auction 2006 Example) tomahawk was collected from an Omaha Indian around 1860. (See: Baldwin, John, Tomahawks and Pipe Axes of the American Frontier, Early American Artistry Trading Company, West Olive, Michigan, 1995, p. 103.) The two sold from the Heritage sale were from the Chandler-Pohrt Collection. The pipe tomahawk measures 8.75" x 24.25". The tomahawk blade is hand engraved on the right side of the blade in script that appears to be original to the piece, but is not legible.

Otoe Missouri War Axe Tomahawk c. 1840-50

Lot #83a (Sale Order 95 of 498)

The wooden haft is wrapped in old red trade stroud cloth with old brass tacks, ending in a gathered and knotted fringe drop (possibly a later addition to the piece). The piece shows wonderful condition with minor stains and wear from age and use. This type of Missouri War Axe with red stroud cloth-wrapped haft is commonly seen on Otoe, Pawnee and Osage examples, including the historic example attributed to Osage Chief Bacon Rind that is in the Museum of the American Indian Heye Foundation at the Smithsonian. The term "Missouri War Axe" was coined by American Indian weapons collectors to describe this particular style of tomahawk. They were first discovered by Lewis & Clark on their 1804-1805 expedition financed by Thomas Jefferson, which sent them exploring up the upper Missouri River basin. Meriwether Lewis wrote about these weapons and sketched one in his journal, stating that the local Indians were fervently requesting the expedition blacksmith to make additional examples for them. He went as far as to state that it was the only item the Indians were willing to trade corn, grain and other expedition necessities for and that manufacture, and trade of additional axes is what solely got the explorers through the winter of 1805. Only a small handful of tribes were known to have used this style of tomahawk and in only one specific region. They were made in small numbers, making early surviving examples such as this extremely rare and historically important. The is a superb, rare example and was purchased by noted tomahawk collector and author Mark Francis from Mike Kokin of Sherwoods Spirt of America Gallery at the Tulsa Antique Gun and Weapons Show in 2009. Measures overall 20” in Length. The tomahawk head measures 7.25” L x 4” W across the bottom of the blade.

1936 White Motor Co Model 706 Yellowstone Park Bus

Lot #100 (Sale Order 118 of 498)

Offered for public auction is this immensely rare and original 1936 White Motor Company Model 706 fourteen-passenger Yellowstone National Park Bus, Y.P.T. Co. Number 386. For over 100 years, the history of Yellowstone Park has been one written with tales of transportation, that of traveling across a continent to experience the grandeur of the park and of transportation in the park. From hiking the miles of its beautiful lands to pack mules and horse drawn stage coaches and eventually the transportation touring busses. Tourist from around the world for generations have been chauffeured along the park’s scenic roads in these large open-air buses that were produced by the White Motor Company of Cleveland, Ohio. The Busses were operated and privately owned by the Yellowstone Park Transportation Company with this, Model 706, being the last generation of touring bus. A total of twenty-seven of these 1936 White Model 706 buses were ordered by the Yellowstone Park Transportation Company, and by 1939, a total of ninety-eight Model 706’s of various years were in use (the largest number of National Park Busses operating anywhere). Buses of this style were also used in Yosemite and Glacier National Park. The Model 706 was constructed with a robust flathead inline six-cylinder 318 CI engine and four-speed manual transmission on an overbuilt 190-inch-whealbase chassis that was bodied by the Cleveland coach builder, Bender. The body of the 706 shows a beautiful aerodynamic design created by the famous automotive stylist, Russian Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky. One of the most stunning and novel features of the bus was a large canvas-covered roof that could be completely uncovered in good weather, which provided a nearly panoramic view of the park for the tourist riding inside. Another notable feature of the 706, as noted by nps.gov, was the semaphore turn signal on the driver’s side, a Wyoming requirement for buses operating in the state. A divided storage compartment, or “blanket chest” is located behind the rare seat and was used to store blankets for passenger’s comfort. This particular bus, Y.P. Co Number 386 was delivered to Y.P.T. Co. in 1936 and was used in operation from 1936 to 1965. In 1965 the bus was purchased by the artist and teacher Ray Campeau of Bozeman, MT and was used to carry plein air painters around Southern Montana. In 1980 the bus was donated to the Museum of the Rockies and refurbished by Gerald Pesman and Ron Buckingham. It was at this time that the bus was professionally painted in the factory original colors by Bozeman Ford. Two years later in 1982 until present time the bus was used by the Museum of the Rockies patrons on architectural tours, parades, and to fund-raise. For over 35 years the bus has been meticulously maintained by owner and operator the Museum of the Rockies keeping the bus in private storage and pristine condition. The superb condition original bus has 110,000 original miles with the factory original interior, circa 1980 professional paint with minor blemishes, six new tires, vacuum brakes, and good condition fold back canvas top. Behind the flathead 6-cylinder 318 CI engine is the infamous 4-Speed “crash box” transmission which lent to the bus drivers being nicknamed the “Jammers” due to the sound the gears made when shifting on the rough terrain. The “jamming” sound came from the unsynchronized transmissions, where double-clutching was a must. These all original excellent condition Yellowstone Park Model 706 Buses are increasingly scarce with very few ever being offered for sale. This bus is being sold by the Museum of the Rockies, Inc. a 501(c)(3) nonprofit with all proceeds being used to support the charitable mission of the museum. A few Yellowstone Buses have been offered at public auction including bus number 427 offered for sale by Mecum Auctions in their Monterey 2016 Auction and valued at $300,000-$350,000. This bus, No. 386 and No. 427 are the only all original condition (including an all original functioning drive train) buses ever offered for public auction, with No. 386 funds being used to benefit the charitable mission of the museum in Montana. The bus offered in this lot is in very good running and driving condition and can been seen functioning without flaw in an upcoming video.

1963 Cadillac Fleetwood Sedan w/ 390 V8

Lot #101 (Sale Order 119 of 498)

Nothing is more nostalgic than a 1958-1960's Cadillac Fleetwood with the double headlights and large fins. This style of four-door sedan screens "Americana" from headlight to taillight. This particular example of car was manufactured by Cadillac in 1963 and is the ever-so-popular Fleetwood model. The four-door car features the original V8 390cid engine that originally produced 325 horsepower with a 4bbl four-barrel carburetor. The Fleetwood has long been the choice of the Upper Crest and boast a 149.8 inch wheelbase. The car was known as the Series 75 and featured the much desired large lines and flairing fins that Cadillac was known for. The Fleetwood Series 75 was offered in a 4dr Sedan and 4dr Limousine with only 680 of the four-door sedan's being produced. This example shows an automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power locks, power seat and radio. The interior shows a fair surviving condition as it is still present in the factory stylings with signs of age, but overall presents well. The previous owner had the engine rebuilt over 15 years ago by Internal Cumbustion Machine in Belgrade, Montana (no paperwork included) and also added a sound system. The rear of the car was repainted by Ressler Chevrolet and Cadillac in Bozeman with the original factory paint. The vehicle shows the typical wear spots shown in these 1963 Fleetwood's, as it is in original condition, such as degrading lower front bumper caps and fender paint bubbles near the tire (both are repairable / replaceable). This is truly a unique ride that currenly is in running and driving condition. The good about the vehicle: running and driving, overall good appearance, appears to be a fine survivor with little to no modifications, new battery, pillar-less windows with original window trim, tinted windows, fine smooth running v8 engine with ample power. The bad about the vehicle: windshield wipers are not working, taillights unhooked, drain on battery, transmission has slight slip, front paint shows fade, front bumper ends need repair, radiator needs repair. The vehicle is sold with a clear Montana title and is ready for this summer's cruising and car shows! This is your chance to own a very clean surviving Cadillac from their iconic years for much less than most on the market.

Even the bore shows strong rifling. Has a buckhorn rear sight and Winchester blade front sight. A fine example of a rifle produced in a factory before the use of electricity that is as good and solid today as it was on the day it was made. The Model 1873 was the standard for lever actions throughout the Frontier Period in the West which, in some areas like Montana, lasted well into the twentieth century. Most surviving specimens show heavy use and often abuse with broken or missing parts making this example far superior to those normally encountered. This is a truly beautiful example with an extraordinary amount of original bright factory blue remaining. This rifle, in the very desirable large caliber .38-40, recently came out of Arizona. The Mod. 1873 is undoubtedly Winchesters most popular repeating rifles, found in every barn, saddle scabbard, and behind every ranch house kitchen door during the frontier years.

The simple service was a huge advantage in sparsely populated areas where a gunsmith may be a few days ride - This meant the owner only needed a few spare parts, and a screwdriver, never to worry about their trusty rifle falling out of service. The model 1873 was produced uninterrupted from 1873 - 1923, this particular example's serial number attributes its manufacture to 1890. Antique Firearm requires NO FFL and NO Background Check.

Civil War Sharps New Mod 1859 Saddle Ring Carbine

Lot #109 (Sale Order 128 of 498)

Available in this lot for auction is an unaltered, very early Civil War Sharps New Model 1859 .52 Caliber Percussion Saddle Ring Carbine, serial number 59966. One of the most popular and successful of the cavalry carbines was the Sharps breech loader. Capable of firing a grooved bullet in a combustible black powder loaded paper cartridge or single loaded with lead slug with loose powder behind and ignited by a percussion cap, the Sharps gained a rapid reputation as a reliable, accurate, powerful and fast firing weapon. Troops armed with single shot muzzle loading muskets were no match for the new breech loaders designed by Christian Sharps. After the Civil War many of these battle proven weapons went to the western frontier. Most of the New Model Sharps rifles and carbines were later converted to fire the standard .50-70 metallic cartridge and reissued for Indian War use. Hence, those in original and unaltered percussion ignition from the Civil War are very scarce and desirable arms on the antique collector market today. This example shows heavy Civil War usage, yet retains a clear readable “NEW MODEL 1859” barrel stamp just ahead of the receiver along with Sharps markings ahead of the rear sight on the barrel top. It also retains the correct marking “C. SHARPS PATENT” over “SEPT. 12TH 1848” on the left side of the receiver. The lock plate on the right side of the receiver retains both the Lawrence 1859 patent markings plus the C. Sharps 1852 patent markings. This “attic condition” carbine displays a very deep aged patina on all metal parts that has never been cleaned or restored. The original forend and butt stock show sling ring and saddle wear, yet are in fine condition with tight wood to metal fit and showing none of the usual chips, cracks or repairs in the stock by the lock plate, receiver upper tang or trigger guard tang. Retains the original sling ring and bar and still has a tight action. Increasing the desirability of this Sharps is that it is an early example that was originally made with a steel patchbox in the stock. When stocks were broken and replaced, the patchbox was omitted. It is rare to find an example with the original stock and patchbox intact. This is one of the most historically significant of the great Civil War carbines and is a scarce example of a very early low serial numbered Sharps that saw hard fighting and service through the Civil War from beginning to end. Much more scarce and desirable than the later New Model 1863 marked specimens that are usually encountered on the collector market today. The carbine qualifies as an Antique Long Gun, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check. Serial Number: 59966.

The rifle is marked in numerous places, reading; "Winchester - Model 1873" on the upper-tang, "Winchester Model 1873 - - Caliber 44-40 WIN.

Allen & Thurber Engraved .32 Pepperbox c. 1840's

Lot #115 (Sale Order 136 of 498)

Brought to auction for you in this lot is a circa 1840 factory engraved, Allen & Thurber .32 Caliber, six-shot percussion "pepperbox", revolving pistol.

The pistol was preferred by the "49ers" of the California Gold Rush, urban dwellers looking for a "daily carry" for self defense, as well as soldiers on both sides of the Civil War. The easy use of the firearms mechanics meant a simple pull of the trigger revolves the 3 3/4" barrel cluster, raises the bar style hammer, and fires the gun. The reasonable size of the firearm, and the consistent use means most pepperbox examples have heavily worn, gray metal finish at best, or more often than not, showing baldy rusted, and pitted frames.

Offered to you in this lot for bidding is a circa 1866 Smith & Wesson First Issue "Old Model" 1 1/2, two-tone silver plated presentation revolver, chambered in .32 rim fire short. To reload the weapon, the barrel was tipped up, the cylinder was pulled forward and out of the frame and then the empty shell casings could be poked out by use of the ejector rod under the barrel. It was a simple and sturdy design that worked well. The pistol is accompanied by a letter of provenance from the Smith & Wesson Historical Foundation's Roy G. Jinks. The letter states; “The revolver about which you inquired in your letter of recent date is a Model 1 ½ First Issue, which is also called the Old Model 1 ½, and was chambered for the .32 Rim Fire Short cartridge. This model was introduced in April, 1865 and was designed as a medium caliber pocket revolver. It was manufactured in blue or nickel finish and with 3 ½” or 4” barrel lengths. The Model 1 ½ First Issue was a popular pocket revolver of travelers, gamblers and many individuals as a house gun. It was replaced in 1868 by the Model 1 ½ Second Issue which was of a more popular style. The total production for the Model 1 ½ First Issue was 26,300 revolvers. We have researched your Smith and Wesson Model 1 ½ First Issue, caliber .32 Rim Fire Short, revolver in company records which indicate that your handgun, with serial number 16879, was probably shipped from our factory on September 28 1866 and delivered to Mr. A. Burt no address listed. It appears that it was picked up directly from Smith & Wesson. The records indicate that this revolver was shipped with a 3.5 inch barrel, two-tone finish plated & blue finish, and smooth rosewood grips. The records just list the finish as plated and list what type plating was completed.”. The backstrap of the revolver reads; Henry Heath from his friends at Crescent Mills Russell, MASS" in gorgeous period script, All that is known about Henry Heath, is that the Crescent Mills was a paper mill, near Russell, Massachusetts during the time of production for this revolver. And little is known about the original recipient of the revolver - Mr. A. Burt. Additionally, the firearm shows correct early markings, reading; "Smith & Wesson. Springfield, MASS. - PAT'D. APR.3. JULY 5. 1859. & NOV.21.1865." on the top of the barrel. The plating mentioned in the letter refers to the silver plated frame of this special order revolver. Silver and gold plating were offered by S&W on a special order, extra cost basis, and are rarely encountered. Interestingly, this example was a two-tone finish with a silver plated frame, and a blue'd cylinder and barrel. Overall, this 152 year old pistol shows a natural state of uncleaned preservation, with a naturally aged patina on the blue'd and silver plated finish components, and gorgeous rosewood grips. Additionally, the pistol shows very-good mechanical condition for such a firearm, displaying excellent condition, with a tight action and break, and a rifled bore in truly fine condition. Combined with the aforementioned information with, and a very low production number, this particular revolver would make an outstanding collectable handgun, by one of Americas oldest, and most trusted gun manufactures.

Colt Pocket Navy Cartridge Conversion Revolver

Lot #118 (Sale Order 139 of 498)

Offered to you in this lot is a extremely limited production, Colt Pocket Navy Cartridge Conversion revolver, serial number 18779. Only approximately 2,000 of these rare revolvers were made by Colt from 1873-1875 and all were made for the popular .38 Rim Fire cartridge. Survival rate is very small and few of these limited production arms exist today in any condition. This example is particularly interesting in that it was manufactured by Colt using both new parts and converted obsolete percussion revolver parts. All numbers match including the barrel, cylinder, frame, trigger guard and back strap. Also interesting is that the brass frame still retains the “36 CAL” stamping above the left rear side of the trigger guard. This was a holdover from the original percussion Pocket Navy caliber designation. Also, the cylinder has the double serial number stamping (5095 and 8779) indicating that the cylinder was taken from a previously serial numbered percussion revolver, converted to cartridge and correctly re-numbered by Colt at the factory to this revolver. This is discussed with supporting photographs in the excellent classic book A Study of Colt Conversions by Bruce McDowell. Several revolvers described and photographed in this book with identical double cylinder numbering are very closely numbered to this example. This is a particularly fine revolver with fine address on the correct 4 ½” octagon barrel, “ADDRESS COL. SAML COLT NEW-YORK U.S. AMERICA.” The left side of the frame is correctly stamped with 1871 and 1872 patent dates. Additionally, the cylinder retains a fine “Stagecoach Holdup” roll engraved scene. All steel parts display a most attractive uncleaned aged patina and the brass trigger guard and back strap show a very attractive and pleasing mellow patina. It also has a fine bright rifled bore, tight action and excellent mechanical condition. One of the scarcest of the early Colt cartridge revolvers manufactured during the Reconstruction Period of the post-Civil War South and the most violent early period of the Old West. A seldom offered, very limited production Colt in fine condition. The revolver qualifies as an Antique Hand Gun, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.

Lot #119 (Sale Order 140 of 498)

This lot features a classic early Civil War issue Colt 1860 Army .44 Caliber Percussion Six Shot Revolver, low serial number 76091, made 1862. This was one of the most issued and popular of the Civil War revolvers with many, if not most, going to the West after the war for Indian Wars or frontier service. This example is complete and functioning. It has matching numbers on the back strap, trigger guard, barrel assembly and frame. Overall it displays an attractive deep aged patina with no evidence of having been buffed, polished, steel-wooled or cleaned. Correct 8” barrel with fine and correct Colt one line address on top “ADDRESS COL. SAM’L COLT NEW YORK, U S AMERICA,” correct small blade front sight, attached loading lever functions correctly, one piece walnut grips intact and shows a light roll engraved cylinder scene. The bottom of the brass front strap has seven very small and worn-in “kill notches.” Unfortunately, the meaning of these is now lost to history, but leaves much to the imagination! This handsome revolver has obviously “Been there and done that!” An iconic firearm of the violent close-contact battles of the Civil War and later in the turbulent Wild West. The revolver qualifies as an Antique Hand Gun and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check. Serial Number: 76091.

Ames US Model 1842 Box Lock Percussion Navy Pistol

Lot #120 (Sale Order 141 of 498)

Offered to you in this lot is a historic U. S. Model 1842 Box Lock Percussion Navy Pistol manufactured for the U.S. Government by N. P. Ames of Springfield, Mass. The .54 caliber Model 1842 has the distinction of being the first U.S. martial percussion pistol produced and delivered under contract to the government. With only 2,000 Ames Navy box lock pistols produced and delivered, surviving specimens are extremely scarce and sought after by collectors today. Most of these scarce and historical arms saw service through the Civil War. Because of their large caliber, some even found their way to the western plains where “buffalo runners,” who hunted by galloping their horses into herds of stampeding bison, shot directly at the panicked animals from their mounts at point blank range! This fine example bears the early date of 1844 on both the lock plate and barrel (dates were 1843, 1844 or 1845). The correct six inch barrel is clearly and correctly stamped at the rear “USN” over “1844” over “RP” over “P” and the rear of the lock plate is clearly stamped “U.S.N.” over “1844” with the center lock plate marking “N.P. AMES, SPRINGFIELD, MASS.” Still retains the correct and original swivel steel ramrod (these often missing) as well as the correct mellow, uncleaned brass barrel band, trigger guard and circular butt cap. Excellent mechanics along with un-sanded, un-altered wood and lovely aged patina make this a most desirable arm for the Navy/Marine arms collector or general U.S. martial arms collector. The unique center-hung box lock hammer along with the square grip shape makes this a most unusual and attractive single shot U.S. issued pistol during the Pre-Mexican war sailing ship days! Much more scarce than the round butt army models. The pistol qualifies as an Antique Percussion Hand Gun, and does not require FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check. Serial Number: NSN.

The entire tribe was involved in the buffalo jump, and can be seen in illustration on this hide. First, the most fleet young man of the tribe would disguise himself in a buffalo hide robe and place himself between the herd, and a precipice proper for the purpose. Once the man was in place, the remaining men would emerge from behind, and create a stampede. The buffalo would naturally follow the young runner, who had the dangerous job of securing himself once near the precipice. Often there would be wooden pylons, and funnels to insure the buffalo didn't scatter once near the cliff. Underneath the cliff, the rest of the tribe would prepare for the incoming herd. When the buffalo hit the ground, men armed with spears would ensure a kill. After the buffalo were killed, processing began. You can see the processing in illustration on the hide, first is smoking of the buffalo, followed by tanning of the hide, and processing of the meats. The hide is signed on the bottom edge, reading; "School of Life for the Pikuni - Dr Morris @ 2015 - Natoo Ang Skii - Rabbit Jump Boarding School of the Blackfeet".
