WYOMING WIZARD

FRANCIS E. WARREN


Folks, here is the story of “Wyoming Wizard Francis E. Warren,†by Joe Koller who tells of the life and times of this great western cowboy who rose from obscurity to become Governor of the State of Wyoming and, later, to serve his state as Senior Senator.

OLD SHEEPHERDER MEMORABILIA

IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING

Remember, the old wars between the cowmen and the sheepherders? Well, here’s one that the sheepherder won. Yep, the actual true story of Francis E. Warren who started out tending sheep and later was elected as a member of the:

National Cowboy Hall of Fame

and Western Heritage Center

Please read this. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones like this put out by G. C. London Publishing Company never make it. This is a collector’s western item which is very hard to find. It’s historical items are treasured by collectors and are hard to find. I hunt them out cause really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest.

Here’s one of ‘em.

Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell.

This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost.

Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive.

I hope you appreciate the effort.

WYOMING WIZARD

OLD SHEEPHERDER MEMORABILIA

IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING

While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that.

My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the Ebay entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color.

As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.

Buyer pays postage of $3.50 First Class Postage to U. S., Priority Mail at $4.75, $11.00 Par Avion (Air Mail) for International Mail. Texans must pay 8-¼ % sales tax. Thanks,

Tom
