A Bunch of Buckskins
Frederic Remington, 1901
REMINGTON, Frederic (1861-1909). A Bunch of Buckskins. Introductory note by Owen WISTER. New York: Robert Howard Russell, 1901.

Complete series of eight archetypal "buckskin" cowboys by Frederic Remington, the archetypal artist of the Old West. Remington's drawings and Wister's text both typify the "cowboys and Indians" dichotomy that was so potent and influential well into the 20th century. Scarce as a complete set. Bobins 1464; Hassrick & Webster 2537-2544.

Broadside folio (630 x 488mm). Title printed in red and black; introductory note (corner crease). 8 chromolithograph plates after Remington's pastel drawings, signed by the artist in the plate, on gray card mounts (a few spots to versos and near mounting, small chips to mount corners). Loose as issued in original linen-backed board portfolio with printed cover label (light soiling and rubbing), linen ties; modern quarter morocco solander box.
