Samuel Robb (1851-1928) Cigar Store Indian, "Indian Princess, Pocahontas"
Samuel Anderson Robb (1851-1928) carved wood cigar store Indian, "Indian Princess, Pocahontas". Circa 1880. Samuel Anderson Robb was an American sculptor, best known for his carved wooden figures for tobacco shops and circus wagons. He initially apprenticed as a shipbuilder. His workshop was the largest in nineteenth-century New York City. His carvings ranged from traditional cigar store Indians to circus wagons and ventriloquist dummies. The wood used for figures was carved from solid white pine logs, which were readily available locally, a soft wood that was easy to carve with hand tools and a relatively inexpensive wood species.
This item was collected by William Parker Lyon and was part of the Pony Express Museum in Arcadia, California.
William Parker Lyon was considered a pioneer in preserving and collecting relics of the Old West. His love for the West began in 1897 when he started to collect Pony Express items. In 1925, his collection growing steadily in both size and scope, Parker Lyon built the Pony Express Collection, in Arcadia, California, to display his historical items. At its peak, the collection boasted of having over a million artifacts, including stagecoaches, Native American items, a train, firearms, and cigar store Indians.
After Parker Lyon's death in 1949, William Fisk Harrah, the head of Harrah's Club in Nevada, purchased the entirety of the Pony Express Museum. He shipped the collection to Reno, where a small portion was displayed alongside Harrah’s vehicle collection.
Beginning in 1975, and continuing after the death of William Harrah in 1978, a series of auctions were held that sold off the collection of the former Pony Express Museum. The last sale took place in 1986.
This carved cigar store Indian was one of those artifacts and can be seen in photos in the book "The Parker Lyon-Harrah's Pony Express Museum" by Greg Martin.
Dimensions: 87"h x 17.5"w x 25"d.

Overland To California: The 1849 Manuscript Diary of Ichabod Davis Hamilton
Overland To California: The 1849 Manuscript Diary of Ichabod Davis Hamilton; Leather bound octavo, 160 pages. Includes newspaper clippings regarding Hamilton family home.
Ohio native Icabod Davis Hamilton (March 16, 1822–January 7, 1894) while visiting friends in Louisville, Kentucky, heard the dramatic news of the California gold discovery. Immediately touched with a potent case of gold fever, he quickly boarded a ship in late April 1849, reached St. Louis, and with several fellow fortune-seekers began the long and arduous overland trek to the Golden Land. Realizing what a momentous adventure and opportunity this quest for riches presented, it inspired him to maintain a superb daily handwritten journal starting with his opening line “Rising Sun April 25th 1849.” That year, Hamilton joined over 30,000 Forty-niners who madly rushed to California taking the Oregon and California Trail via the Platte River Route that took them over the dusty plains of the Mid-West passing such well-known sites as Fort Laramie, natural landmarks like Chimney Rock, Nebraska, before leading to the mountainous and challenging terrain of Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and the High Sierra. Following what may have been the Sacramento River, he reached Sacramento City and promptly scurried off to the mines. Amazingly, original hand-written Forty-niner diaries continue to surface as evidenced by this newly discovered captivating account which serves to continue and expand our understanding of the most famous and best documented event in California history, the gold discovery of January 24, 1848.
Carrying a leather-bound, gold-gilded journal measuring 7⅜x 5 ¼ inches (octavo) filled with 160 pages of lined paper and decorated marble endpapers, gave Hamilton an easy-to-handle volume that the pioneer could faithfully make dated pencil-written entries following a long and exhausting day's journey of ten to fifteen miles. His entries are clearly and succinctly written giving a true picture of daily life on the gold trail describing such prosaic subjects as finding sufficient water and grass to feed their mule and ox teams, wash clothes, and gather buffalo chips to cook dinner. One can also feel his exhaustion and the tedium of coping with volatile weather conditions. While enduring the harshness of the trek, Hamilton and his fellow gold-seekers fortunately did not encounter serious tragedies other than one of their members accidentally killing himself while unpacking his rifle. Their sturdy pack animals and wagons held up while crunching over rough terrain. Occasionally this band of Forty-niners did encounter Native Americans, but this did not result in any hostility or clashes. Providing hope, he heard reassuring reports from returned travelers of the golden prospects of California, which, in turn, spurred them on to beat the competition. On May 24. Hamilton proudly wrote into his journal that they had “passed about 150 teams” of Forty-niners on the trail.
Hamilton’s journal ends with his arrival in California, reaching what he called the “Rag City” of Sacramento and Tragedy Spring, Amador County on Thursday, September 11, 1849. His trek of about 2,000 miles took approximately 144 days. Eventually, this Forty-niner went into mining and farming in the Mariposa area. Being a loyal family man and newly married, he returned home via the Isthmus of Panama, made a second overland trek, and brought his family with him to California. Ever ambitious, he ran two inns in the Mariposa area before settling in Stockton and embarking on a moderately successful steamboat business towing barges on the San Joaquin River from 1873 to 1878 before retiring.
In addition to his 1849 diary, the back of the volume includes several pages of handwritten notes concerning business transactions from January 20, 1859, to March 18, 1862. Another series of pages includes Hamilton's undated notes of a trip, flanked on each page by two columns of numbers. However, the purpose of the journey or the numbers is not indicated by this pioneer.
Considering the harshness of the 1849 trek to California, Hamilton's leather-bound journal is in remarkably good condition. Although written in pencil, the pages are generally legible with no staining. Inserted into his journal is a newspaper clipping showing the stately "Hamilton Home and Block" at 825 North Madison Street that Hamilton built in 1858 in Stockton. Sadly, another undated clipping in the volume reported that the "Stately Pioneer Home Comes Down to Make Way tor Apartments.
All-in-all, the Hamilton volume is a valuable record of a commonplace man who saw in California a golden opportunity.

Grace Hudson (1865-1937) Painting, "Clement / #573"
Framed Grace Hudson (1865-1937) oil on canvas painting, "Clement / #573". Signed and dated (23) lower left. Signed canvas verso, "G. Hudson / Ukiah / 573". Circa 1923. Biltmore Galleries and Fenn Gallery, New Mexico, labels verso.
Dimensions: 16"h x 10"w; (framed): 24"h x 17.5"w.
Grace Carpenter Hudson was born to well-educated pioneer parents in Potter Valley, California. She showed an early talent for drawing that was developed by professional training in San Francisco in the early 1880s at the San Francisco School of Design, where she excelled in portraiture. She returned to her parents' home in Ukiah, Mendocino County, where she gave painting lessons and helped out in her parents' photography studio. In 1890 she married again, this time to John Hudson, a physician for the San Francisco and North Pacific Railroad that had its terminus in the town. With John's encouragement she began painting the local Pomo Indian peoples whom she had known since a child. She painted over 600 in her lifetime. While nearly all her portraits were of Pomo peoples, she is also known for depictions of Japanese, Chinese, and Hawaiian natives during a year's sojourn in the Hawaiian Islands in 1901, as well as sketches she produced of Pawnee Indians in Oklahoma Territory, circa 1903-04.

A.D.M. Cooper (1856–1924) Painting, “The Precipice of Life”
Unframed Ashley David Middleton Cooper (1856-1924) oil on canvas painting, "The Precipice of Life" on stretcher bars. Signed lower right.
Dimensions: 9'3"h x 13'7"w.
Accompanied by Copper hand signed letter, dated October 16, 1906, documenting the sale of this painting to D. Knabe of Oakland, California.
Cooper was born in St. Louis, Missouri. George Catlin, the early explorer/painter of Plains Indian life, was a family friend, and his paintings and stories probably inspired Cooper's life-long fascination with Native Americans.
After studying art at Washington University, Cooper made his own explorations through western territories, living with Indians and recording his experiences in drawings and paintings. He spent two years in Boulder, Colorado drawing for Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, and making easel paintings of Indian subjects and western landscapes. At age 24, Cooper moved to San Francisco and adopted the life of a Bohemian artist, setting up his first studio in the city's Latin Quarter. His reputation grew quickly, and by the early 1880s he was selling his paintings in the eastern United States and in Europe.
Cooper moved to San Jose, California in 1883, eventually building an elaborate studio in the Egyptian style. His contemporaries considered him one of the most important artists in California, and his paintings were purchased or commissioned by members of the California aristocracy, including Mrs. Leland Stanford.
In his later years, Cooper increasingly painted landscapes, allegories, and historical subjects. His brushwork loosened, and some of the allegorical paintings, in particular, have an impressionist quality.
Cooper was a notorious bon vivant. It was said that he paid many bar bills with paintings of women, and many establishments in the area featured one or more of his canvases.
