A sterling silver cowboy in woolly chaps, bow-legged, hat pushed back, neckerchief knotted at the throat. A cow-poke, if you want the word they would have used at the counter. Still on the original Maisel's card, never worn.
The chaps are the tell. Those shaggy angora legs are the real thing, and they're why he reads cowboy and not prospector.
- Sterling silver, marked on the original Maisel's card
- Approx. 1" tall x 1/2" wide, not including the jump ring
- New old stock, still attached to its original Maisel's card
- One available
The story
Maisel's Indian Trading Post opened on Route 66 in downtown Albuquerque in 1939. Maurice Maisel hired John Gaw Meem, the architect who defined Pueblo Revival, and told him he was "not content with the usual Indian thing." Olive Rush designed the murals across the facade, painted by young artists including Pablita Velarde, Ben Quintana, Harrison Begay, and Pop Chalee. By the 1940s Maisel's was the largest trading post on Route 66. The building is on the National Register of Historic Places. This charm came off that counter and never left its card.
One available. When he's gone I have no way to get another.
