Ticket with "The Scouts" / First Night. Approx. 1.5 x 3.5 in. Blanks for seating on end, this one blank. Plus three cardboard pieces, 1.25 x 3.375 in. each, one (lavender) with "Dove Eye," another (yellow) with "The Scouts," and the third (white) with "Ned Buntline." "The Scouts of the Plains" ran from 1872 through early 1876 (when Buffalo Bill Cody raced home to his dying son). Initially the show consisted of "Buffalo Bill" and "Texas Jack" Omohundro and was produced by Ned Buntline. In 1873 Cody invited "Wild Bill" Hickok to join them, but he did not last long, deciding the stage was not for him. After the death of his son he joined Phil Sheridan and others in what he thought would be the "last great Indian War." Cody's new Wild West format began in 1883, inspired by a 4th of July rodeo he sponsored that year. Condition: All with some handling marks.
