THE WILD WEST
Introducing a new series by Commandant Miniatures:
BUFFALO BILL'S WILD WEST

Figures are converted from old British toys and are cast in solid non-lead metal in a size similar to Britains Ltd., about 54mm (2-1/4 in.) tall
...........with each marked wherever possible with the original manufacturer's name plus the CM logo.
Painting is in the brightly enameled old toy style, lead-free,
...........and because of the distinct individuality of both the cowboys and the plains indians, clothing color variations and differences in war-paint, horse markings and shield pictographs will be common.
Each figure comes with a Story Card giving some background on the personality and incident portrayed;
...........series plan is to add portrayal of various incidents in the life of Buffalo Bill, particularly the Wild West exhibitions.
Because small parts could detach and cause a choking hazard, this series is NOT suggested for small children.

WILLIAM F. "BUFFALO BILL" CODY, 1846- 1917 was the best known American of his time and, arguably, the most famous person in the world, not only because of his enormously popular Wild West exhibitions in the U.S. and abroad, but also because of tall tales of his exploits in the popular theatricals and dime novels of the day. His careers were many- teamster, soldier, Pony Express rider, buffalo hunter, army scout, actor, and showman. His character was by no means perfect but he was the popular romantic ideal of the western hero, who really could ride and shoot with the best and was true to his word. A brave fighter in the Plains Wars, he nonetheless became a respectful friend and advocate for the Plains Indians.

1868- Buffalo Hunting

BUFFALO HUNTERS		The American Plains Indians used several methods for buffalo hunting. One such, and the favorite for Buffalo Bill Cody, was to ride up alongside the running animal before shooting. In Cody’s case the weapon was a .50 cal. Springfield rifle nicknamed “Lucretia Borgia”. The buffalo hunt, using real buffalo, was re-enacted in the Wild West exhibition, with Indians simulating attack with bow and arrow or rifle. The entire troupe, buffalo and elk included, toured widely in the U.S. and Europe.	Shooting with Bow & Arrow	$30.00
			Shooting "Bright Boy" Winchester Carbine	$30.00

1869-Encounter with Tall Bull, at the battle of Summit Springs

TALL BULL and HIS HORSE

In July 1869, Army Scout “Buffalo Bill” Cody led the Fifth Cavalry in an attempt to rescue two Swedish women from the camp of the renegade Chief Tall Bull. Bill shot the Chief and captured his bay horse, who later proved to be a swift racer. After informing Mrs. Tall Bull (who had just murdered one of the captive women and wounded the other) of her husband “cashing in his mortal chips” he promised her to name the fine horse “Tall Bull”-and did.

YELLOW HAIR in POW-WOW COSTUME		Yellow Hair, a sub-chief of the Cheyenne, supposedly gained his name as the result of scalping a blonde woman. He lost his own hair in a surprise encounter with Buffalo Bill, after each had exchanged two shots at close range. An interpreter misunderstood his name as “Yellow Hand” and such he was called in the 1944 movie “Buffalo Bill”. The Chief, played by Anthony Quinn, wore an albino buffalo head-dress in one scene, such as shown on this figure. The movie duel was fought with knives.	$15.00
YELLOW HAIR and HIS UNFORTUNATE PINTO HORSE		After the massacre of Custer and 5 companies of the 7th Cavalry in 1876, feelings were running high against the Cheyenne. It was then that Buffalo Bill, scouting ahead of the 5th Cavalry, abruptly came upon Chief Yellow Hair. Bill’s first shot traversed the Chief’s leg, killing his horse; his second hit the Chief’s head. Bill, taking his knife, shouted “First scalp for Custer!” in the only instance of his taking a scalp, but in a scene frequently re-enacted in his early Wild West exhibitions.	$30.00

1885 THIRD YEAR OF THE "WILD WEST" EXHIBITIONS- Chief Sitting Bull's One Appearance.

CHIEF SITTING BULL

The renowned Sioux chief, organizer of the Custer defeat of 1876, toured with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West during the 1885 season. He had been very taken with Annie Oakley, adopted her as his daughter and gave her the name “Watanya Cecila” –“Little Sure Shot”. Bill’s try at rescuing Sitting Bull during the ghost dance unrest of 1890 was thwarted. The Chief was shot by Indian Police during an arrest attempt, setting off a performance, cued by the gunshot, by a gray trick horse given to the Chief by Bill. The horse was returned to Bill.

"OVERTURE"

"1. GRAND PROCESSIONAL REVIEW and 2. ENTREE.Introduction of Individual Celebrities, Groups, etc."

"7. MISS ANNIE OAKLEY"

WING-SHOOTING

Petite Annie Oakley, a phenomenal sharpshooter, toured the U.S. and Europe with Buffalo Bill’s Wild West, earning acclaim and marksmanship metals. She so impressed Chief Sitting Bull that he adopted her as his daughter and gave her the nickname “Little Sure Shot”. She was complimented by Queen Victoria who told her, after a Command Performance during the 1887 tour, that she was “a clever little girl”. Annie’s fame lives on in movies, TV shows and the Broadway hit “Annie Get Your Gun”.

COWBOY ROPERS AFOOT		In the years following our Civil War, the term “cow-boy” had a meaning, to the average American, that suggested a disreputable person of crude and violent habits. When Buffalo Bill began, in his Wild West exhibitions showing these brave and hardy men riding , roping, bronco-busting and showing other western skills,they began to attain respect. They were the heroes, along with Bill, in the Deadwood Stagecoach and Settler’s Cabin Rescues of the Exhibition.	Swinging lasso at side around legs or above head	$20.00 Each
COWBOY ROPERS MOUNTED			Swinging lasso on rearing or galloping horse. With quirt on bucking bronco (NOT YET READY)	$30.00 Each

COWBOY MARKSMAN

The hefty Army Colt pistol, first manufactured during the Civil War, continued as a favorite sidearm of cowboys during the days of the wild west frontier.

PLAINS INDIANS MOUNTED			Illustrating the marked individuality in costume, horse "medicine" markings and warpaint. No two exactly alike- in these miniatures as it was in real life.....		$30.00 Each
CHIEF RED SHIRT		Numerous Lakota Sioux were employed by Buffalo Bill Cody during the years his Wild West toured. Red Shirt served a long term as Contingent Chief of the exhibition’s Indians and was introduced to Queen Victoria at her invitation during the first tour to England, 1887. Red Shirt is shown, weapon in hand, ready to act in the action-packed tableau “Attack on the Settler’s Cabin” in which the settler and his wife would be rescued at the last minute by Col. Cody and the Cowboys.			$15.00
CEREMONIAL COSTUME		All white costume such as might be worn to a pow-wow with representatives of the Great White Father in Washington, such dress probably more often seen in Hollywood movies, very much influenced by wild west shows, than on the plains.			$15.00
FLAGBEARERS			Wild West exhibitions were intensely patriotic. Playing of the "Star Spangled Banner" was played as part of every performance's musical opening- beginning nearly 50 yearsbefore its official adoption in 1931 as the National Anthem.	Flagbearer in either Horned Warbonnet or Single Feather	$20.00 Each
MOUNTED PLAINS INDIAN WARRIOR POINTING		The Hollywood image of native Americans as wildly galloping brilliantly feathered plains warriors came directly from Buffalo Bill’s immensely popular Wild West exhibitions, which employed many plains tribesmen, mostly Lakota Sioux. Later film images of a brave but overwhelmed native American culture, proud, hardy and independent also grew in part from exposure of the general public to the Exhibition’s Indian Village, its performers and their families, and from Buffalo Bill’s advocacy for decent treatment of American Indians.		Various Shield Pictographs, Horse Markings and Warpaint	$30.00
				You May Specify Choice of Pictograph- Perhaps-Your Ancestors?	$45.00

1913- NEAR TRAIL'S END- The WILD WEST, then partnered with Pawnee Bill's Show was foreclosed on in Denver and assets auctioned on September 15. Bill, in declining health, continued in various ventures but was never able to retire to his beloved Wyoming ranch.

BILL ON ISHAM

Colonel William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody, is shown near the end of his career, his hair turned white, rearing up on a favorite horse “Isham”, saluting his Wild West audience, as he did at the end of each performance. The renowned hunter, scout, Indian fighter (and good friend to Indians), marksman, showman and Congressional Medal of Honor recipient met financial setbacks late in life and had to auction belongings, including Isham. A friend bought the horse for $150.00 and returned him to Bill.
