[mod="Ranch Dog"]I corrected the image links. The library has a block on them from being displayed on other sites. Clicking on the links will open the images on their site.[/mod]
I like this one. http://library.centerofthewest.org/digi ... efault.jpg

Trapper I would like to see that Winchester ad you've got. Maybe on a coffee cup too!
Hey Gunny,
I was going through that website archive and they have some other vintage winchester adds.
I could spend days going through their archive.
I copied that old winchester add on a piece of my wifes card stock that has a slight yellow aged color to it.
Came out real good so I may find a frame and hang it up somewhere.

That Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody, WY, is another place I wish I could see again, this time for at least 3 days. In 1971 a month after my best running buddy and I graduated high school, we took off on our own style of a "senior trip" and decided to see the world ... and least some of it outside if NE Texas. Originally just going to Colorado for a couple of weeks of camping, but only camped (second night of "trip" one night in Colorado and decided we needed to see Wyoming. Next thing you know we were spending a very fast 4-5 hours trying to see everything there was to see in the BB Museum (relatively small compared to what I hear nowdays). I'd doubt that we even "saw" a third of what was there then. after another three days, since "we ain't never been there either", we'd been so Montana, Idaho and Canada ... then back to Cody so I could do my 7 seconds of an 8 second bareback bronc ride at the Cody Rodeo. Unfortunately, we didn't hang around Cody the next day to re-visit the museum since we realized there were a few other places "we ain't never been to". In 10 days we put over 5000 miles on his gas guzzling Dodge truck, and a little bit of sleeping time, and cooking time, at roadside parks and some other strange places.
Now that I'm a bit older, I'd like to spend at least two days in the museum ... as long as I know where the bathroom is
