c.1906 Postcard Native American Indian Lokota CHIEF IRON TAIL Buffalo Bill Wild West Star In this pre-1907 undivided back postcard, sender writes on front in pencil, "This is the Indian Buffalo Bill killed. I saw him at the circus in Newburg NY..." Aside from the writing on front, as was the law then, condition of this original vintage postcard is Excellent, NO creases. Iron Tail (Oglala Lakota: Siŋté Máza in Standard Lakota Orthography) (1842 May 29, 1916) was an Oglala Lakota Chief and a ...star performer with Buffalo Bill's Wild West. Iron Tail was one of the most famous Native American celebrities of the late 19th and early 20th centuries and a popular subject for professional photographers who circulated his image across the continents. Iron Tail is notable in American history for his distinctive profile on the Buffalo nickel or Indian Head nickel of 1913 to 1938. Chief Iron Tail was an international personality and appeared as the lead with Buffalo Bill at the Champs-Élysées in Paris, France and the Colosseum in Rome, Italy. In France, as in England, Buffalo Bill and Iron Tail were feted by the aristocracy. Iron Tail was one of Buffalo Bill's best friends and they hunted elk and bighorn together on annual trips. Iron Tail continued to travel with Buffalo Bill until 1913, and then the Miller Brothers 101 Ranch Wild West until his death in 1916. 190607 8832 R6112019 AUS_The large scans below offer the best description of the condition of the postcards offered.

Buffalo Bill Cody riding in a 1910 Buick Automobile with his close friend and fellow Show Performer Oglala Lakota Sioux Indian Chief Iron Tail at Davenport, Iowa. This Photograph was the personal property of the family of Buffalo Bill Cody and was presented in 1967 to Buffalo Bills grandson Fred Garlow upon the occasion of the Buffalo Bill Home Centennial Festiv...al.

Cody in a 1910 Buick driven by my Uncle Alex Klemme. The building in the background is the Scott County Iowa Court House on 4th Str. In Davenport, Iowa.

Greetings from one who was born near here at Rock Spring. This picture is presented to you today by one of several thousand admirers Sincerely, Naomi Utter. A manuscript notation in another hand (likely that of Pattsy Garlow) reads: Presented to Fred Garlow on his visit to La Clair, Iowa and to old Cody Home May 28th, 1967. This Photograph was the personal property of the Cody family and descended to his great-granddaughter Patricia Ann "Patsy" Garlow - granddaughter of Cody's daughter Irma. Provenance: This fantastic Photograph descended directly in the family of Irma Louise Cody Garlow, Buffalo Bill Cody's last surviving child. Buffalo Bill and his wife Louisa Frederici Cody (1843-1921) had four children but only their two daughters - Arta (1866-1904) and the baby Irma (1883-1918) lived to adulthood. Irma married Frederick Harrison Garlow Sr. (1880-1918) and had 3 children - Frederick Harrison Garlow Jr. (1911-1985) William Joseph Garlow (changed name to Cody) (1913-1992) and Jane Cody Garlow (1909-1987). When Irma and Fred Garlow Sr. died within three days of each other during the influenza pandemic of 1918, the three young children were cared for by their Grandmother Louisa, wife of Buffalo Bill Cody. Fred Garlow Jr. married Margaret Southerland and they had two children Patricia Ann (b.1948) and Mark Frederick (b. 1952). The Photograph offered here was the property of Patricia Ann "Patsy" Garlow, Buffalo Bill's direct great-granddaughter. It was the property of the Cody-Garlow family and was originally the property of "William F. Buffalo Bill" Cody. This Photograph spent most of the last half of the 20th century on loan to the Buffalo Bill Historical Center of the West and bears a BBHC index number on the verso (this Photograph does have a BBHC index number in pencil on the reverse). This rare and wonderful, ca1910 Western Americana Buffalo Bill's Wild West Photograph is in very good condition. The Photograph exhibits sharp focus, strong contrast and rich, warm tonality. There is some light wear at the edges and some light soiling. An exceptionally rare and original, ca1910 William F. Cody unpublished, large size, unmounted Photograph of William F.
