Item description from seller

The Cherokee Strip by George Rainey (1933) — Signed First Edition with Ephemera A Rare Signed Chronicle of the Oklahoma Frontier Own a foundational piece of Western Americana. This 1933 first edition by George Rainey is an essential, highly detailed history of the Cherokee Strip in Northwestern Oklahoma. Covering the era from 1541 through the dawn of the 20th century, this volume documents the transformation of land once designated for Cherokee resettlement into a landscape defined by the rugged realities of the Old West. Collector & Provenance Highlights: Exceptional Provenance: This copy is personally signed by the author, George Rainey (May 25, 1934). Exclusive Ephemera: This listing includes two highly desirable items laid in: a facsimile letter of appreciation to Rainey from the legendary Will Rogers, and the original book advertisement flyer. Historical Significance: Highly cited in essential Western bibliographies, including Adams’ Six-Guns (1790) and Adams’ Herd (1854). Fascinating Content: Contains detailed accounts of the "Strip" outlaws, featuring in-depth narratives on the Dalton Gang, Dick Yeager, Ben Cravens, and the historic killing of Ed Short and Charlie Bryant. Condition & Material Details: State: Very Good. Details: A tight, well-preserved copy of 504 pages with illustrations. Features light, age-appropriate foxing to the endpapers and edges. The original gilt lettering on the spine is slightly faded, consistent with a volume of this age and significance. A cornerstone acquisition for private libraries focusing on Western history, the Oklahoma frontier, early American outlaws, or the personal history of the American West. [Store Loc. 2.6]. …
