A Pair of Montana Prisoner Folk Art Carved Bison Horns

Item Details

Description

A Pair of Montana Prisoner Folk Art Carved Bison Horns
Late 19th Century
engraved on one side Deer Lodge Prison and Harry Woolrich on the other.
Height 14 inches.

Harry Woolrich was a notorious gambler from Montana who was also heavily entrenched in the gaming scene at the Monte Carlo Dance Hall and Saloon, a premier entertainment establishment in Dawson City during the height of the Alaska Gold Rush. The Jefferson Valley Zephyr reports on 7 January 1898 that Woolrich and two associates were "arrested in Butte for gambling. They conducted a skin game and beat a miner named Hudnott." Though a search of the Montana State Prison index failed to turn up results for Woolrich, he likely entered the Deer Lodge Prison shortly after this incident.
This lot is located in Cincinnati.
Property from the collection of Jonathan Holstein, San Francisco, CA

Provenance:
By descent within the Woolrich family;
purchased by a private collector, 2002;
sold to the present owner.
