“Buffalo Bill” Cody Signed Ticket to His Wild West Show
William Frederick “Buffalo Bill” Cody (February 26, 1846 – January 10, 1917) was an American soldier, bison hunter, and showman. He was born in Le Claire, Iowa Territory (now the U.S. state of Iowa), but he lived for several years in his father’s hometown in modern-day Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, before the family returned to the Midwest and settled in the Kansas Territory. Buffalo Bill started working at the age of eleven, after his father’s death, and became a rider for the Pony Express at age 15. During the American Civil War, he served the Union from 1863 to the end of the war in 1865. Later he served as a civilian scout for the US Army during the Indian Wars, receiving the Medal of Honor in 1872. One of the most famous and well-known figures of the American Old West, Buffalo Bill’s legend began to spread when he was only 23. Shortly thereafter he started performing in shows that displayed cowboy themes and episodes from the frontier and Indian Wars. He founded Buffalo Bill’s Wild West in 1883, taking his large company on tours in the United States and, beginning in 1887, in Great Britain and continental Europe.
William “Buffalo Bill” Cody signed ticket to his Wild West show in 1899. Cody signs the ticket “WF Cody” prominently in pencil on the “Compliments of” line. The ticket is titled “Buffalo Bill’s Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World”, which was the name of Cody’s show beginning in 1893. Measures 4.75″ x 2.25″. Full ticket is in near fine condition. Sold for $916.
