Square Shooter (Columbia, 1935). Three Sheet

Square Shooter (Columbia, 1935). Three Sheet (41" X 81"). Tim Baxter (Tim McCoy) has been framed for a murder he didn't commit and, after serving his time in prison, returns to his home town, not only to confront the real killers, but to regain a ranch, willed to him by his uncle, that was wrongfully taken from him. McCoy was a truly remarkable character. Not only was he one of the leading cowboy stars of the 1930s and 1940s, but he was also a sharpshooter, famous for his fast draw. Additionally, he was an expert on Indian folklore, and was one of the very few white men who could converse in the nearly-lost art of Indian sign language. His later years were spent as a gentleman rancher and an occasional guest at Wild West shows. This glorious three sheet boasts a spectacular image of this legendary star. It had pinholes in the corners, a small hole in the image area to the right of McCoy's head, a small instance of paper loss in the bottom border, a tiny hole in the top right corner, as well as one in the "M" of "McCoy," and one between the "H" and "O" in "Shooter." Professional restoration has expertly addressed these minor issues, rendering them visible only upon close examination, and returning a Near Mint appearance to this classic beauty. Fine/Very Fine on Linen.

Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 100-110 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 22.50% Buyer's Premium with a $9 minimum Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid. This lot is being auctioned in conjunction with a live floor auction by Heritage Auctions. All final auction and invoice information will be supplied by Heritage Auctions, and all other information should be considered preliminary. Lot:28366
