Light toning mild wear and tear as typical of 100 plus year-old paper. Gordon William Lillie (1860 - 1942) was a showman and performer who specialized in Wild West shows including a short partnership with William "Buffalo Bill" Cody, plus his own "Pawnee Bill's Historic Wild West Show". Lillie acquired the nickname "Pawnee Bill" for his work with the Pawnee Indian agency in Indian Territory in the early 1880's. In 1883 he worked as the Pawnee interpreter with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. In 1888, Lillie and his wife May Manning launched "Pawnee Bill's Historic Wild West" show which ran through 1907. For the 1908 season, Pawnee Bill and Buffalo Bill Cody combined their shows, a move which lost money and led to foreclosure. Their legacy lives on with the annual Pawnee Bill Memorial Rodeo and a modern version of Pawnee Bill's Original Wild West Show at the Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum in Pawnee, Oklahoma.

Store description
Stellar Books & Ephemera specializes in unique items of Americana often known as one-offs--manuscripts, letters, diaries, photography material, letter-press publications, and broadsides, plus whatever fun books make their way into inventory.
