A fossilized bison skull

Circa 1st century BCE or later; North America A well-preserved fossilized skull of an American bison, also mistakenly known as an American buffalo 27” H x 28” W x 8” D $1,000-1,500 Notes: The bison is an undisputed icon of the American West with a wide, heavy face, prominent eye sockets, and curved horns that project horizontally.

A member of the bovine family, the bison diverged from a common ancestor with the water buffalo and African buffalo around 5 to 10 million years ago.

During the late Middle Pleistocene, around 195,000-135,000 years ago, the bison migrated across the Bering land bridge from Eurasia into North America, eventually becoming the American bison we know today.

Collector’s notes indicate found in North Dakota.

A pair of Al Furstnow “wooly chaps”

Al Furstnow (1862-1925) A pair of leather and hair-on-hide black sheep/goatskin curly wool “woolies,” late 19th/early 20th century Stamped to belt: AL. Furstnow / Miles City, Mont.

The wooly chaps with tooled floral motif to belt including tooled monogram: AWH, and with patched canvas and denim lining Inseam: 34”; waist: 42”; Each leg: 10” W at narrowest part $1,000-2,000 Notes: Al Furstnow was born around 1862 in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin. He learned the saddlery business from his father and worked for Collins’ Saddlery in Cheyenne, Wyoming, in 1881. Al’s family came from being saddle and harness makers in Germany, and it was a skill he mastered and made a name for himself in the United States. Furstnow went to Miles City, Montana, about 1883 where he worked for about a year. He then moved around to Nebraska, Wyoming, and California for several years, coming back to Miles City about 1892. Albert was said to have made outfits for the Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show for the Paris Exposition while he was employed in Omaha, Nebraska. In August of 1894, Furstnow opened his own shop. In December 1894, he gained a partner and two years later, Furstnow and Coggshall bought out the stock of a couple other saddle makers, and soon became the only major saddlery between Billings, Montana, and Dickinson, North Dakota and “a lot of people were sitting in saddles in those days!”

Saddle makers also made all the accessories including chaps, saddle bags, gun belts and any other leather needs the cowboys or town folk had. Wooly chaps such as these are likely to have been made fairly early in Miles City’s history, as “woolies” were popular for riding ranges with lots of brush and brambles on them. This tended to be more so in the early days and decreased as ranges were cleared and fenced.

In March 1899 Furstnow & Coggshall split up, forming a rivalry that apparently lasted well into the 20th century. Around 1910, AI Moreno, a highly talented stamper from California, joined Furstnow, who was then turning out about 800 saddles per year. Al Furstnow went to California around 1922 where he built saddles for some of the actors in Hollywood. He died in California around 1925, about 62 or 63 years old. Al Furstnow’s Saddlery in Miles City, Montana continued until 1982, run by his son-in law, Al Moreno, carrying the Furstnow name for around 88 years.

Lewis by repute.

“A life-long resident of Acoma Pueblo, located on a high plateau near Albuquerque, New Mexico, Lucy Martin Lewis continued centuries-long traditions of pottery making. American Indian pottery making is predominantly handed down through the matrilineal line, with women learning techniques and approaches from their mothers, grandmothers, and aunts. Lewis’s distinctive aesthetic is characterized by fine, linear geometric patterns in black on a white (kaolin) ground. After gathering clay and pigments for her pots from Acoma lands, Lewis built up forms from coils of clay and then scraped and smoothed them into thin-walled vessels. With astonishing precision, she painted designs on her pots freehand, devising patterns to fit the shape of each vessel.

Originally, Pueblo pottery was used for ritual purposes or for practical needs, such as holding food or water.

It was only within Lewis’s lifetime that pottery came to be appreciated as art, and potters began to sign their pots to identify themselves as artists. Lewis began to sign her work in 1950. Because Acoma Pueblo potters traditionally did not sign their names, hers was an act of independence, and it generated controversy within the community.” Lucy Lewis’s pottery first became known outside the pueblo in 1950, when she received a blue ribbon at the Annual Inter-Tribal Indian Ceremonial in Gallup, New Mexico. During the 1980s and 1990s Lewis received awards from the American Crafts Council, the College Art Association, the state of New Mexico, and the Honolulu Academy of Fine Arts. Her work is part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution.

Davidson and sent to Gallery De Silva, stating, “I have examined this painting and, in my opinion, it is the work of Edward Borein.” Signed in blue pen by Harold G. Davidson, and dated August 15, 1980.

The imagery, romance, and mythology of the American West has been painted, filmed, and written about for generations, but often by those who never experienced it. Few artists lived the harsh and unrelenting life of the cowboys and vaqueros they depicted. Few rode along the lonely dust filled roads in stagecoaches and wagons across desolate landscapes. Or witnessed the culture and customs of the Native American nations of the West firsthand. One of those few that did was Edward Borein.

The West was in Boreinís blood from the beginning. Born in 1872 in San Leandro, California, Borein grew up in the final decades of the Old West to a family of ranchers. The work of the cowboy came naturally to Borein, who by age twelve was driving cattle. While working with the cattle and horses on the ranch, Borein began to sketch. Aged 18 and bored of school, Borein left to travel up and down California, working as a cowboy on ranches throughout the state, all the while capturing the life of the ranchers in drawings. After returning to northern California for a month-long stint at the Art School of the San Francisco Art Association, Borein was encouraged by classmate Maynord Dixon to pursue art as a career. Borein left school again and found work at the Rancho Jesus Maria, and there began to send sketches out to magazine publishers.

After leaving the harsh conditions and grueling labor of Rancho Jesus Maria, Boreinís life became the epitome of the greatest legends of the Old West. Borein set out for Mexico, learned Spanish, and journeyed from ranchero to ranchero through central Mexico. Making his way north and back to the United States, Borein spent time among the Native American nations of the American Southwest.

All the while Borein feverishly documented the life of the people and communities around him, continuously sending off drawings and illustrations to be published.

At 30 Borein boarded a train for New York City and left behind the life of the cowboys for a professional artist. Longing for the life he left behind, Borein adorned his Manhattan studio with artifacts and trappings from California and Mexico. He entertained luminaries such as Buffalo Bill Cody, Will Rogers, and his old friend from art school, Maynard Dixon. Borein also befriend another figure who found meaning and purpose in the West, then-president Theodore Roosevelt. Longing for the Western life he left behind, Edward Borein returned to California in 1921. He set up his own studio in Santa Barbara, California, and began producing etchings and paintings of the colorful characters he lived and worked with. Already a thriving artistic center, Santa Barbara would be home to Borein for the rest of his life. He immersed himself in the city, helping to establish the Fiesta Parade and holding court with notable artists and creatives like Leo Carrillo, Walt Disney, and friend Will Rogers. Edward Borein died in Santa Barbara in 1945, hailed as one of the most authentic artists of the American West.

While originally an ink and oil artist, Edward began to study etching while in New York City. Never feeling confident in the mediums of oil or watercolor painting, etching became Boreinís specialty. This sale compiles a wide range of subject matter dear to Edward Borein, from cowboys and vaqueros on the range to California missions. The frenetic linework of these etchings and quality of their impressions bring to life and instill the energy of the long-ago world of the Old West.

A nickname “Ah-Say” became “Acee” when he entered school. Although he had shown an interest in drawing at an early age, it was at the University of Oklahoma that he developed as a serious artist under the guidance of a professor, Dr. Oscar B. Jacobson. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in 1932, traveled abroad to England to lecture at Oxford in 1935, and returned to Oklahoma the following year where he accepted a teaching appointment at Bacone College until 1938.

Following three years of military service during World War II, Blue Eagle joined the art staff of Oklahoma State University Technological School in Okmulgee. He was in residence there until his death on June 18, 1959.

Blue Eagle’s work is found today at the Gilcrease and Philbrook museums in Tulsa, the Creek Indian Museum in Okmulgee, Bacone College in Muskogee, the University of Oklahoma in Norman, the Oklahoma Historical Society in Oklahoma City, the Museum of New Mexico and the Institute of American Indian Art in Santa Fe, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs in Washington, D.C. A similar set to this one is part of the permanent collection at the Gilcrease Museum, Thomas Gilcrease Institute of American History and Art in Tulsa, OK.

Gregory Lomayesva (b. 1971)

A standing kachina figure sculpture, 1994 Signed to upper body verso: Gregory Lomayesva / 94 [faint] A tall figure with painted wood mask and tableta with multicolored feathers and painted canvas body, mounted to painted wooden base.

35.5” H x 13.25” W x 7.5” W $500-700 Provenance: Private Collection, Southern California Notes: Gregory Lomayesva is an internationally recognized painter, sculptor and mixed media artist who lives and works in Santa Fe, New Mexico. A painter since his mid-teens, Lomayesva’s career began when he combined his woodworking skills with the classical imagery of his Hopi heritage to create unique sculptures and paintings at the cutting edge of contemporary American folk art. Beginning with the masks and dolls that are staples of his historical folk art tradition, Lomayesva quickly built a recognizable visual lexicon all his own that he eventually brought to large-scale works of wood, bronze, and steel: fusion artifacts that rapidly developed a strong collector base and wide acclaim. The Kachina styled figures are representative of his Hopi roots but not representative of actual Kachina figures. The feathers used are moulted parrot feathers that add rich coloration to each work. Although Lomayesva draws on aspects of both his Hispanic and Hopi heritage, he says: “I don’t identify myself too much with either culture because I don’t want to be pigeon-holed. I think that doing art based on ethnicity limits the playing field, so I try to express myself as an artist whose playing field is the world.”

Conditions of Sale These Terms and Conditions of Sale (“Terms“) set out the terms by which the sale or purchase of property at auction through John Moran Auctioneers, Inc. (“Moran”) will be governed. These Terms constitute a legal and binding agreement between You and Moran.

1. AUCTION HOUSE AS AGENT. Except as otherwise expressly stated in writing, Moran acts as an agent for the seller. Thus, any contract for the sale of property through Moran is made between the respective seller and buyer.

2. BEFORE THE AUCTION a. Public Preview. All property is available for inspection by public or private preview according to the auction information posted online and in the catalogue. In many cases, particular lots can be examined in advance by private appointment by contacting a customer service representative at info@johnmoran.com or by dialing 626-793-1833. Prospective buyers are strongly encouraged to personally examine any property in which they are interested. b. Buyer’s Responsibility. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction. c. Property Sold “As Is”: Neither Moran nor the seller provides any guarantee in relation to the nature of the property, or to any errors or omissions in the catalogue or supplemental material, apart from the Limited Warranty stated in Section 5 below. All property IS sold “AS IS.” Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran’s catalogue, or online, or can be made available upon request.

The absence of a condition report does not imply than an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does reference to particular defects imply the absence of others.

3. AT THE AUCTION a. Admission. Moran’s auction is open to the public, although Moran reserves the right to, in its sole discretion, refuse admission or participation to anyone at any time. The auction may be recorded (visually, aurally, or otherwise) and all participants or attendees at the auction consent to such recording. b. Buyer Registration. Prospective buyers must register with Moran before bidding. Moran may, in its sole discretion, require identification, financial references, or a deposit in advance of buyer eligibility. Registered bidders accept personal liability to pay the purchase price, including the Buyer’s Premium, as described in Section 4(a) below, plus all applicable charges, unless Moran agrees in advance that the bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party that Moran, in its sole discretion, deems acceptable. In such case, Moran will look to the third party for payment. c. Bidding Guidelines. Bidding, whether in person or by agent, absentee bid, telephone, or internet, constitutes a bidder’s acceptance of these Terms. The highest bidder acknowledged by the auctioneer shall be the buyer. The auctioneer retains the absolute right to reject any bid; withdraw, pass, or divide any lots; combine multiple lots; advance the bidding at their absolute discretion; and—in the case of error or dispute, whether during or after the sale—determine the successful bidder; continue the bidding; cancel the sale; or re-offer and sell the lot in question.

Under no circumstances are sellers, or agents acting on their behalf, permitted to bid on their own property. In the event of any dispute after the auction, Moran’s sale record shall be conclusive as to the successful bidder and the price of the successful bid. d. Absentee, Telephone, and Internet Bidding. Moran offers absentee, telephone, and internet bidding as a convenience to clients and does not accept liability for errors or failures to execute bids. Absentee and telephone bids must be recognized by Moran prior to auction day. When identical absentee bids are submitted that become the highest bids at the auction, the bid first received by Moran shall be accepted as the winning bid. Telephone bidders are encouraged to leave minimum bids in case of technical failure. e. Reserves. Unless Moran expressly indicates otherwise, lots may be offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the lot will not be sold. The reserve for any lot shall not exceed its published estimate. Moran shall act to protect the reserve by bidding through the auctioneer, who may open bidding on any lot below the reserve by placing a bid on the seller’s behalf. The auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the seller up to the reserve amount, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Lots without reserves are typically opened for bidding at 50% of their low estimate. In the absence of a bid at that level, the auctioneer may proceed backwards at their discretion or deem the lot unsold if a bid is not recognized.

4. AFTER THE AUCTION a. Payment and Title Transfer. The buyer agrees to pay the sum of the hammer price plus Buyer’s Premium, plus any applicable sales tax. The Buyer’s Premium will be calculated as follows: 25% on the first $1,000,000 of the hammer price, plus 20% on any amount between $1,000,001 and $5,000,000, and 15% on any amount above $5,000,000 when paying by cash, check, or wire transfer.

Successful bidders using Live Auctioneers or Bidsquare platforms will be charged a Buyer’s Premium calculated as follows: 30% on the first $1,000,000 of the hammer price, plus 25% on any amount between $1,000,001 and $5,000,000, and 20% on any amount above $5,000,000 when paying by cash, check, or wire transfer.

Credit card payments will be subject to an additional 3.5% acceptance fee. This fee is not more than the cost of accepting these cards. Buyers outside the United States must submit payment via wire transfer. Credit cards are not an accepted form of payment for buyers outside the United States. Buyers are strongly encouraged to provide full payment at the auction. Payment must be received by Moran within five business days immediately following the auction. The buyer does not acquire title to and may not take possession of the lot until all amounts (including the hammer price, premium, and applicable taxes) due to Moran have been paid in full. b. Collection. Buyers are strongly encouraged to collect purchased items from the sale site at the time of the auction. Packing material and labor are provided free of charge at the sale site during the auction. Packing and handling of purchased lots is undertaken by Moran solely as a convenience to customers. If a buyer opts to use this courtesy packing and handling service, Moran is not liable for damage to property, regardless of cause. c. Storage and Abandonment. Following the auction, uncollected lots shall be relocated to and stored in Moran’s warehouse. Moran shall retain possession of all purchases until full payment has been received from the buyer. Lots remaining uncollected after the fifth business day following the sale, regardless of payment status, are subject to a per-lot daily storage charge of $10.00. In addition to other remedies available by law, Moran reserves the right to impose upon delinquent buyers a separate 1% monthly charge (of the purchase price, or the maximum permitted by law) commencing on the sixth business day after the sale date. If a buyer fails to retrieve a purchased lot within thirty (30) days after the date of sale (the “Retrieval Period”), Moran may, without further notice, (a) continue to store the lot in Moran’s warehouse, or at the warehouse of a thirdparty, subject to the storage charge described above; (b) deliver the lot to the buyer at the buyer’s expense; or (c) sell the lot at auction without reserve at a place and time determined by Moran in its sole discretion.

d. Consequences of Late Pick-Up/Abandoned Property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Moran has no duty to store any lot indefinitely.

Any purchased lot that remains in Moran’s possession sixty (60) days after the Retrieval Period (collectively, ninety (90) days) will be deemed abandoned (“Abandoned Property”) and title to it will pass to Moran. Moran may, in its sole discretion, discard or sell any Abandoned Property and may keep any proceeds from any such sale. Moran may not be held liable for any claims related to Abandoned Property. Moran is not responsible for damage or loss that occurs to Abandoned Property and Moran is not responsible for insuring Abandoned Property after the Retrieval Period. e. Shipping. As a courtesy to buyers, Moran provides a list of preferred shippers who are in the business of transporting antiques and works of art. Buyers are responsible for arranging their own shipping estimates and deliveries. Moran, in its sole discretion and as a courtesy to buyers, may arrange to have purchased lots packed, insured, and forwarded by a third-party shipper at the request, expense, and risk of the buyer. In circumstances where Moran arranges for such third-party services, Moran may apply an administration charge of 15% of that service fee. Moran assumes no responsibility for acts or omissions in such packing or shipping by other packers or carriers, even if recommended by Moran. Moran also assumes no responsibility for any damage to picture frames or to the glass therein. f. All Sales Final. Notwithstanding other terms mentioned herein, refunds may be given in Moran’s sole discretion. Refunds requested on the grounds of authenticity must be made within 180 days of the auction and accompanied by a supporting written statement from a recognized authority (defined as a person who has authored, edited, or substantially contributed to a monograph on the artist; a person who has curated, organized, or substantially contributed to a solo exhibition on the artist; or a person who has represented the artist’s estate or someone who represented or worked closely with the artist while they were alive and, in any of the foregoing instances, physically handled works of the period, medium, and subject matter in question during the course of their duties) stating that the object sold is incorrect or not the work of the artist.

Dealers, appraisers, and representatives of other auction firms do not qualify as authenticators of individual artists unless they have had such specific involvement with that artist’s work, as specified above, in addition to their daily duties. Refunded lots must be returned to Moran in the same condition as when sold. Moran does not grant extensions to refund considerations based upon authenticity due to shipping delays. There are no exceptions to this refund policy.

5. LIABILITY AND LIMITED WARRANTY a. Liability. The buyer expressly agrees that (i) neither Moran nor the seller shall be liable, in whole or in part, for any special, indirect, or consequential damages, including, without limitation, loss of profits, and (ii) the buyer’s damages, if any, are limited exclusively to the original purchase price paid for the lot. b. Limited Warranty. All property is sold as is. Neither the seller nor Moran or its associates make any representation, express or implied, warranty (including merchantability and fitness), or guarantee in condition, age, size, provenance, medium, signature, inscription, exhibition history, importance, rarity, country of origin, genuineness, historical relevance, monetary or other value, framing or lack thereof, mounting, conservation, coloring, palette, inscription, edition, style, label, or other descriptor. No statement in the catalogue, brochures, website, bill of sale, invoice, any supplementary material, or statements by any Moran employee shall be deemed a warranty, representation or assumption of liability. c. Descriptions. No warranty, whether express or implied, is made with respect to any description contained in this auction or any second opinion. Any description of the items or second opinion is for the courtesy of identifying the items for those bidders who do not have the opportunity to view the lots in person, and no description of items has been made part of the basis of the transaction or has created any express warranty that the goods would conform to any description made by the auctioneer. Color variations can be expected in any electronic or printed imaging and are not grounds for the return of any lot. d. Estimates. All estimates provided are carefully considered opinions of Moran’s specialists and are merely suggested guidelines for interested buyers. Buyers must be aware that all property sold is subject to fluctuating values depending on the subjective interests of collectors and a wide variety of other uncontrollable factors. The lots auctioned may sell at prices above, within, or below estimate. e. Notices, Demands, and Refunds. Any demands for refunds, problems with the lot(s) sold or notices of any kind concerning the auction shall be made (1) in writing and addressed to John Moran Auctioneers, Inc, 145 East Walnut Avenue, Monrovia, CA 91016 or (2) via email at info@ johnmoran.com.

6. ADDITIONAL MATTERS a. Copyright. The copyright on all images, illustrations, and written material produced by or for Moran for its auction is and will remain at all times the property of Moran. Moran and the seller make no representation or warranty that the buyer will acquire any copyright or reproduction rights to a purchased lot. b. Buyer’s Breach of Conditions. If a buyer fails to comply with any of these Terms, Moran may, in addition to asserting all remedies available by law, including the right to hold that buyer liable for the purchase price, (i) cancel the sale, retaining as liquidated damages any payment made by the buyer; (ii) resell the property without reserve at public auction or privately upon notice to the buyer; or (iii) take such other action as Moran deems necessary or appropriate. If Moran resells the property, the original defaulting buyer shall be liable for the payment of any deficiency between the original sale price and any subsequent mitigation sale, including warehousing, the expenses of both sales, reasonable attorney’s fees, commissions, incidental damages, and all other charges due hereunder. In the event that such buyer pays a portion of the purchase price for any property, Moran’s shall apply the payment received to such property that Moran, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Moran shall have the benefit of all rights of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the State of California. c. Governing Law. The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Terms and the conduct of the auction shall be governed and interpreted by the laws of the State of California. d. Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by private arbitration before an arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures.

Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

This clause does not preclude the parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

In any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms, the arbitrator shall award to the prevailing party, if any, the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration. If the arbitrator determines a Party to be the prevailing party under circumstances where the prevailing party won on some but not all of the claims and counterclaims, the arbitrator may award the prevailing party an appropriate percentage of the costs and attorneys’ fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with the arbitration. e. Severability. Should any of these conditions be deemed unenforceable, invalid, or illegal in any court having jurisdiction, that part shall be severed from these Terms and shall have no effect on the enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein, which shall remain valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
