WONDERFUL WESTERN LEATHER-BOUND SHERIFF’S LICENSE RECORD.

WONDERFUL WESTERN LEATHER-BOUND SHERIFF’S LICENSE RECORD. This unique calf skin leather bound ledger book records the business licensing history of Lehmi County Idaho from 1892-1923. General merchants, saloon & billiard hall operators, peddlers, from the rural towns and villages obtained their business licenses from the Sheriff in the County seat of Salmon, and are listed within this record. Lehmi County, which borders on the Salmon river in NE Idaho is best known as the birthplace of the Shoshone Indian woman Sacagawea (Sacajawea). Her fame and recognition for legendary accomplishments far exceed those of her actual role. Without this Shoshone woman, however, Lewis and Clark may never have accomplished the difficult task of getting to the Pacific Ocean and back. This ledger is a wonderful time capsule of western frontier life at the turn of the century. SIZE: Size: 11″ x 16″. CONDITION: Generally very good. Embossed end boards are sound as show some leather minor losses at the corners and several scrapes on the back panel from contact with a sharp object. Heavy duty spine is still stiff with some scuffing at high points. Pages are legible with some light foxing at the edges. 4-45609 JWD150 (1,500-2,000)

Auction: Firearms - Spring 2012

Please Note: All prices include the hammer price plus the buyer’s premium, which is paid by the buyer as part of the purchase price. The prices noted here after the auction are considered unofficial and do not become official until after the 46th day.
