Fritz White(1930-2010) Native American holding Buffalo Bronze. 17"h, 8"w,<br>6.75"d, 10.5 lbs signed in cast Fritz White (American, 1930-2010), numbered 22/<br>225, C/A Cowboy Artists of America stamp.Fritz White was best known throughout<br>the world for his distinctive style of bronze sculpture, and for being a key<br>player in turning Loveland into the well-known sculpture community it is<br>today.He was born January 14, 1930 in Milford, Ohio to Denver and Geneva<br>(Hatfield) White. By the time he was 12, his father had enrolled him in an adult<br>art class in a college in Cincinnati. “The war was going on and those small<br>colleges needed all the students they could get, so they agreed to take me. I<br>got a lot of special attention from the teachers. It was great,” he<br>recalled.After graduating from Terrace Park High School in Cincinnati in 1948,<br>Fritz played semi-pro football. Carrying those lessons forward, he later coached<br>junior high football and was fondly known as Coach Whitey.Fritz proudly served<br>in the U.S. Marine Corp. from 1948 to 1953 as Sergeant of a rifle platoon and<br>later as a Gunny. Following his service, Fritz launched Fancy Lettering, a<br>design studio for sales publications, and subsequently took a position with<br>National Underwriter Company. On a whim in 1961, he loaded up his car with large<br>chunks of marble from Marble, Colorado and thus began his long career in<br>sculpture. Thanks to the support of his dear friend John J. McGraw, Fritz was<br>soon working in clay and bronze.A decade later, in the spring of 1972, Fritz was<br>elected to the prestigious Cowboy Artists of America and became widely accepted<br>as one of the finest sculptors of this century. In addition to winning several<br>CAA awards for excellence (including the only sculptor to win the Colt Award),<br>he served as board member, vice president and president. He was also a Fellow of<br>the National Sculpture Society.

Peter Madsen, an a artist from Simi Valley, CA - creates "Long Arm of The Law"<br>Bronze Sculpture 17.5" tall x 19" wide. No damage or wear. It is dated 1991 and<br>is 13/24, weighs 30 pounds. Number 18/24 sold for 5K on ebay on May 3, 2015, so<br>the price is reasonable and realistic. It will be packed and shipped with<br>extreme care.<br><br>Article is from July 11, 1997 Byline: Patricia Hesselbach Daily News Staff<br>Writer`<br><br>``Good Medicine'' sits on top of the table where Peter Madsen sketches in<br>charcoal in his Simi Valley home. The small sculpture, one of many created by<br>Madsen at the height of a prolific artistic career, reminds him of his inner<br>strength and gives him courage to begin a new life. Known for his tightly<br>detailed bronzes depicting the American Indian and the cowboy, Madsen had<br>enjoyed measurable success in his field. An established and recognized artist<br>since 1986, he had received numerous awards. The Westinghouse Corp., the New<br>York Stock Exchange, Robert Duvall and Iron Eyes Cody purchased his work. The<br>Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage put a collection of his bronzes on<br>permanent display. Madsen had nowhere to go but into the ranks of renowned<br>American artists. Then one day in May 1993, an accident completely altered the<br>life Madsen had so meticulously crafted. While enjoying his other great passion,<br>participating in a Western riding competition, the artist was thrown from his<br>horse. He sustained severe head trauma and brain damage. He fell into a deep,<br>three-month coma. Madsen awoke to begin a journey on a new trail, teaching his<br>body to move again. Modest movement in his left leg signaled the onset of his<br>recovery. The artist also uttered his first words since the accident. During a<br>nine-month hospital stay, followed by seven months in a transitional home<br>setting, Madsen started his remarkable re-education process. ``I'm being born<br>again,'' Madsen said, laughing as he recalled his first tremulous attempts to<br>write his ABCs. The sculptor admired for intricate human anatomical application<br>in his bronze figures had to relearn his own body parts. ``When he first began<br>to draw figures, he would leave off a right arm,'' said his wife, Vicki. She<br>said his drawings reflected his reality. He had to become reacquainted with his<br>right side before he could draw a right side. ``The first sign of artwork came<br>in 1996,'' said Vicki Madsen. For months, she had attempted to coax the artist<br>back to work. Each time she presented him with clay, he responded, ``I can't do<br>this right now.'' Then, one September day, a collection of artist friends paid<br>Madsen a visit. Talking about sculpting stirred something inside him. Someone<br>presented Madsen with a small piece of clay. He squeezed it and responded with a<br>huge smile. There is an ironic twist to the Peter Madsen story. Prior to his<br>injury, the artist had been sculpting the figure of a cowboy being thrown from<br>his horse. Four years later, Madsen has returned to work on the piece by way of<br>surrogate sculptor, Jean Cherie. ``He has the eyes and the vision. Jean Cherie<br>is his hands,'' said Vicki. ``Prophesy Fulfilled,'' like the emerging artist, is<br>a work in progress. Once solely dedicated to his realistic bronze work, Madsen<br>now finds creative expression in a more free-form bas-relief style of sculpture,<br>charcoal sketches and computer graphics. His computer generated designs will<br>soon grace greeting cards. Close friend and personal attendant, Patrick Grant,<br>saw the work turned out by Madsen and suggested ``Greetings from Eagle Vision.''<br>Postcards featuring photos of Madsen's bronzes will complement the collection.<br>Seldom is heard a discouraging word from this cowboy artist who pledges to make<br>his own way in life. Back in the saddle again, he is rebuilding weak muscles<br>through a structured therapeutic horseback riding program. When asked about his<br>attitude toward life since the accident, Madsen exuberantly replied, ``Go for<br>it!'' When asked what his former attitude toward life was, he again replied,<br>``Go for it

c1900 Antique Star Mark Buermann Hercules Bronze California Spurs Pair. These are made of 'Hercules Bronze" special alloy invented by August Buermann.These spurs date pre-1914 with the Buermann Star hallmark, dating them before they were bought out by North & Judd in 1914. 5" long x 3" inner width at heel. As found with no damage Buermann Spurs are one of the most famous and sought after designs from one of the most famous makers in Cowboy Spur history. He can be considered to be a good businessman too, as he fulfilled the need of creating many different types of spurs and also aggressively patenting his brands/logos and designs.  What ever type or style was needed, Buermann was the first to step up and create them. History. August Buermann was born in Germany in 1842 but later traveled to the US after taking his apprenticeship in lock smithing. After joining the army as a substitute at the age of 22 he began making spurs for the civilian and military. Buermann fashioned the now infamous StarBrand that adorn his designs and creations.  The company had grown to have over 100 employees before the turn of the century. By the early 1900s, the majority of military men were wearing Augusts heel spurs and army officers were also entitled to wear heel chains and were all privately purchased from Buermann. August also had a son, August Jr, who succeeded him in running the company when he retired in 1896.  August Jr was also a good businessman like his father but, in 1914 the Buermann name and design was purchased by North and Judd, a large established hardware company. The infamous StarBrand of the Buermann boot spur was no more and was replaced by the North and Judd anchor mark. August Jr then retired. The Buermann name is not without some (slight) controversy too though.  Once the other well known manufacturers started to gain in-roads on the established business, selling new styles of spurs that were popular, Buermann was accused of making straight copies of these designs.  Even to the point where he was accused of taking copies of the images from other companies catalogs for his own use. At that time, the company was seen to be becoming more and more removed from it's customer, branching out and modernizing at a fast rate.  Other companies such as McChesney or Crockett were closer to their customers and Buermann was playing catch-up. Materials. Like many other spur makers, the majority of these spurs are made from solid brass or iron.  However, Buermann also invented 2 types of metal for use too, known as "Star Steel Silver" and "Hercules Bronze". Where these metals were used, the metal name was also stamped onto each piece. In fact, so good were the products that were being made in his modern factory in Jelliff Avenue, that he was able to win some awards of excellence.  The Centenial Commission of Philadelphia bestowed several awards for different products in several categories and the Star Brand also won awards at the St Louis Fair in 1904. tw154

c1900 Moorcroft Style Tubelined Wall Plate Hand decorated with Squeezebag Plate with Woman Chasing Husband with Broom. Really great, likely one of a kind. I believe the reason it's unmarked is there's a slight flaw in the glaze on the top right. In my opinion it's similar in quality to Moorcroft and if it were Moorcroft it would be few thousand dollar piece or more due to the age and great subject matter. Overall crazing, no cracks, chips, or rrestorations. 11.5" wide. I'm sure it's an antique 100+ years old and it's not restored, hand decorated, but that's all I'm really sure about. Could be French Majolica. TW198

Through trial and error and a great deal of help<br>from his Uncle, Paul became an accomplished young jewelry maker.<br><br>By the time he was twenty-two he was ready to launch himself full time into<br>silversmithing. Paul Livingstonis an acclaimed Navajo silversmith who favors<br>substance in his metal work and high-quality, natural stones in all his<br>settings.<br><br>Today, nearly forty years later, Paul is a nationally known and collected<br>jewelry artist. He is particularly known for a style of jewelry most<br>silversmiths shy away from a technique known as ‘cluster and row work’ where<br>multiple tiny stones are used together to form a delicate, colorful designs in<br>jewelry. Paul is happy to work with the little stones, even the tiny round<br>“snake eye” ones and is renowned for how exquisitely aligned the stone clusters<br>and rows of stones are on his pieces.<br><br>Even at his age Paul continues to experiment with new jewelry techniques and<br>design styles. He especially enjoys working unusual textures created on metals<br>and will often incorporate a new surface<br>finish or other design application to see if these changes might enhance the<br>jewelry’s appearance and appeal. Though his forte has always been more<br>traditional even vintage looking Navajo style jewelry, his<br>contemporary designs are also in high demand. Paul Livingston creates beautiful<br>jewelry using stones that aren’t often found in Native American jewelry. The<br>intricate ‘saw work designs’ of his pieces are especially difficult to achieve<br>but so very visually appealing in Paul’s finished work.
