a set of Remington artist proof's with folder I have 4 Remington Paintings in Color. New York: P. F. Collier & Son, 1906. The folder says ARTIST’S PROOFS, SIX REMINGTON PAINTINGS IN COLOR, , and then it list the proofs "In the Enemy's Country.", "An Argument With the Town Marshall.", "The Emigrants.", "Pony Tracks in the Buffalo Trail.", "The Buffalo Runners.". The edges of the proofs and the folder are in really ruff condition. I’m going to frame the proofs to keep anything else from happening to them and was wondering if the folder is worth framing too? If it is not worth framing I would like to have some idios on a way to keep it safe.

Remington originals If you have what would be considered an "original" Remington bronze, you've got a million bucks. I hear a lot of people say they think their Remington is original. Almost all of the "originals" are cataloged and accounted for. As he received orders, Remington would number them 1,2,3 etc., not 12/100 like is common for more modern releases. Also, there will be a stamp from the Roman Bronze Works in New York. Anything that is not configured as described would be an un-authorized copy. There are countless bronze factories doing copies now-a-days. That doesn't mean it isn't enjoyable to have and to look at. You can find out more by going to the Remington Museum website. Good luck.

Remington Seascape Much like Greg (05/02/07) and Catherine (09/30/06) - I too have a seascape (ocean, beach, light house, fence) signed Remington with an authentic looking signature. I know the comment is "Remington never painted seascapes" but I think "never" is a strong word and thought I'd post here anyway - Art History can be interesting in how things are discovered.

Fredericc Remington and Charles Russell Frederic Remington was a much better artist than Charles Russell. Remington's anatomy of people and horses is more accurate than Russell's drawings of people and horses. Though Remington's drawings are usually illustrations (overworked drawings), he was definitely a better draughtsman than Russell. This shows in their paintings too. Sometimes, Russell's anatomy is so bad that it is an embarassment. Also, in Russell's paintings, his colour is often very garish. I believe that Remington actually drew more Native Americans from life than Russell did, and it shows in their drawings and paintings that this is so. A critical eye is necessary to evaluate any work of art. Over many decades, an aesthetic eye is developed. A good art critic should separate the good from the bad and quality art from mediocre art. The name of the artist does not make the work of art a good workof art.

New information on my print After owning it for several years, I finally took the back off to examine my print. It is truly 12 by 16 inches. At the very bottom left in tiny print it says "Frederick Remington (American, 1861-1090): Courtesy The Remington Art Memorial. On the very bottom right it says (c) 1956, Penn Prints, New York"
It's very nice. old paper. Heavy grade paper but not as heavy as cardboard. Can someone tell me the significance of this? It's in beautiful condition even though there are tiny indentions by the old triangular staples where it was framed.

Frederic Remington Mules I have a couple of prints of Cavalry Men on Mules. I'd like to know if there is a listing somewhere of all of his work so I can collect more mule art. One of the prints is a page from a magazine that was framed, it's smaller and obviously just that. The other one appears much older. It is also a Cavalry man on a mule but it's 12 by 16 inches and the paper appears pretty old. It's signed, like they all are but at the bottom in small type print, it says simply "An Army Packer". The frame is also older and the back is cardboard taped in place with a sticker from the gallery. It says "Warlick Studio PHONE 325 Nowata, Okla" It also says to the sides, "Cameras and Supplies" and "Portraits Commercials Informals" on the other side. I am assuming it was a better than average print but would like to know if it's considered an original print or a copy print. Thanks.

Remington Porcelain Figurine Back in the mid 1970’s my grandmother gave me for Christmas Fredric Remington porcelain figurine. It is from the “Gift World of Gorham” and stands about 18 inches tall. This one is labeled from the “Buckskins Series” and is the “Army Packard” figure. The figure is sitting on a horse. If memory serves correct, I believe there were 3 total figures, with one of the other being an Indian on a horse. Does anyone have any idea of the value? I am not looking to sell, just curious. I have googled the web and have found nothing listed. Thanks in advance for any suggestions or comments.

Plaster etchings My step father collected western art. I found 4 approx. 8x11 what look to be plaster slabs that are etched. The signature said REMINGTON, so in looking on the internet I've found this site. One of the blocks/plates is identical to the picture "Cheyenne Scouts Patrolling the Big Timer". I'd like to know more about this art that I have. Is it considered an authentic print? How and by whom was it made? What is it made out of? How much could it be worth? Any answers would be great! Thank you for information, Kathy

REMINGTON - Watercolour of two Gunslingers I was given a watercolour painting in 1977 of what looks like two Gunslingers facing each other on a dirt road with old buildings on both sides of the road with hills / mountains at the end of the dirt road and a hen / rooster at the feet of one of the Gunslingers.
The painting measures approx. H. 6" x L 9"
On the left side of the painting it shows a signature of Frederic Remington. No date or other markings are on the painting.
The painting was appraised in 1968 - 69 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada but I do NOT have the appraisal or any other documentation.
I would like to have this painting authenticated and eventually appraised.
Any help would be great appreciated regarding authentication.
Thank you - Joan F.

Frederic Remington signatures 20 October, 2008
Most people, including most art dealers and so-called "experts", don't know the difference between a print and a reproduction. Most people call reproductions prints. They aren't. A print is hand-pulled by the artist or an artist printer and is either an etching, engraving, lithograph, monoprint, or wood block print. A reproduction is a photograph of an original work of art that is then printed. The book on South- west Artists' signatues does not have all examples of Remington's signatures. I own a small Remington graphite drawing (actual- ly, a sketch completed within one minute) of a Native American.I"scooped" it up under all of their noses at the Southwest Antique Show in Albuquerque this year. All the dealers and so-called "experts" passed it up. The drawing is signed "FR" in a small rectangle. It is superbly drawn, by a master draughtsman. There are only two artists active in the Southwest between 1870 and 1900 who could have drawn my drawing of a Native American - Henry Farney and Frederic Remington. When first seeing the drawing, I knew within three seconds that it was by Frederic Remington. Then, i saw the signature "RF". YUP! Sincerely, Allan Hart

John Hay's Bronco Buster Noreen, I would suggest first doing some background research to substantiate the information found on the dedication plaque. The Library of Congress houses the John Hay Papers. Once you feel confident enough that a bronze was given to Hay, I would suggest contacting the Frederic Remington Art Museum in Ogdensburg, NY

wood block etching I came to own Remington's wood block etching of "The dance of the Buffalo .... I noticed it's signed on right side and Dori is on left side.

Coming through the Rye by F Remington The artwork was sold has "Coming through the Rye", and weighs approximately 300 lbs. an estimate as it takes 3 burly men to lift it. We bought this and other items from a dealer who was going out of business. Art dealers seem to have the same deminsions but the weight difference is 90lbs compared to 300lbs. Can anyone direct me to where we can find out why there is such a difference or if this is truly a Remington.

Stolen Remington and Charles Russell art work In 1969 I bought 160 acre parcel in the mountains with a small lake and many trees about 60 miles from LA. The property was originally homesteaded in 1886. The seller to me was a LA businessman who used the property for entertaining friends and clients. I bought the property from his window after estate probate. The sale included all personal property on the property.
Aside from a fairly large house there remained the original empty homestead house with a basement. In the basement I found many art objects such as a collection of hardcover Popular Mechanics from 1996 through 1919 and other things. I still have most of the items, except two paintings. Included in the items I found were a western oil painting signed by Charles Russell and a lithograph by Frederic Remington of a British coach with 4 white horses and two dressed servants in the front and one in the rear, also signed by Remington dated either 1917 or 1919, I can't recall for sure.
In 1970 a Ventura art appraiser offered to buy the Remington for $58,000 and the Russell for $6,000. I passed and wrapped and stored the paintings in the attic and forgot them for a number of years. Later I remarried and after about 6 months I thought I would officially have the paintings appraised. They were gone.
My new 6 months wife said she took them to an art shop for new frames and forgot them, neither could she find a receipt but she said she would pick them up that next morning, as she new the owner. I was very upset and reminded her the art work was separate property. Later she called me at my office and said no one at the art shop recalled having any such paintings, and since there was no receipt they could not be held accountable. Several years later I discovered my wife and adopted daughter had several bank accounts totaling over 7 figures which I knew nothing about and two homes in my adopted daughters name. She was young and single. I am convinced the money came from the sale of my Russell and Remington paintings.
My purpose in writing to you is to hope to get some idea of the value of the paintings assuming they both are in good condition. My intent is to turn over the issue to a investigating entity on a co-share basis of some sort to be defined, to re-trace the reverse ownership to a certain date of 1973, when the paintings disappeared from the art shop?????
I am not financially capable any longer to front the expense. To go forward with that plan I need to know the parameters of approximate values of each painting, so as to direct me with my negotiations to find the paintings.
Can you help with some rough values if the paintings exist in good condition?
I see you have an email address, so after your initial response and possibly some viewers thoughts expressed, we could converse by email.
If you choose to not proffer values, could you suggest where and who I might obtain a ballpark figure of their possible worth? I see in one art sale some Remington paintings value expressed in the neighborhood of 50 million. Not that I might have one of those but the guy who I got it from was extremely rich and the paintings were in good shape according to the art dealer in Ventura, even though he tried to low-ball me by his offer of $58,000 for the Remington it seems.
I hope you can provide me with some insight.

Unknown Remington Sculpture I have a bronze sculpture that is signed by Frederic Remington, I cannot find any information on this particular bronze. I took it to a local foundry and they are not sure if it is an original, it appears to be an older bronze 70+ years however there is no foundry mark. The sculpture is of 2 cowboys running on horses shooting in opposite directions. One is wearing a hat, one is not. The detail in the faces does look very much like Remingtons work. Are there any commissioned pieces that he did that this could be? It came from an estate in Ft. Worth. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

bronco buster table or desk lamp hello,I have a lamp bronco buster combo. It sure looks like it has some age.The lamp is heavy,the casting appears to be bronze.It is mounted on a rectangular lamp base.On the left front corner,a post,with a twisted swirl design rises up to an armature that swivels 360 degrees.It has a leaded glass shade,with 48 panels. The armature has a tension lever to hold it where you like.I know of the working partnership between R.B.W. and Tiffany & co.I have also looked at the design of several tiffany table lamps and the armature looks very much similar.My question is does anyone know if Tiffany's ever made a lamp,using a small bronco buster on the base.The neck of the shade has a #36 on the metal rim.The bronco buster has Frederic Remington molded in the base,running forward from the horses right hind leg.When I first saw the signature it was hard to read,it looks jumbled and run together.Of course I'm hoping that's the way it should be.Thanks for any help or comments.It is a sweet piece, whatever the case.I can send photos,or measurements,good hunting.

Remington silk print I have six silk prints, which were all rolled up in a cardboard tube. One is a Remington, one is a Beard, one is a William Keith, and I forgot the others. The Remington is of an Indian on a horse herding sheep and goats. It is not large, I am guessing about 12X18 inches.
What is this medium called? Is it actually a photo transferred onto silk, or what?
Thank you for whatever information you can give me.

Help! How do I know if my 1908 Remington is an original or re-print This painting is what I call the buffalo hunter. The buffalo is ramming the horse and indian hunter, both horse and indian hunter are being tossed. It appears to be an "original print" or an original. It is signed, by Frederic Remington and is dated 1908. The canvas appears to be of that era and has a marvelous petina. While there are some cracks in the oil, it is in particularly good condition. Can you please help or direct me where to research this?

Frederick Remington Bronco Buster I recently inherited a "Bronco Buster" from my Grandfather. I know he was 'well-to-do', and wonder how authentic it is. Here is what info I have on it:
20.5" tall (from bottom of base to top of hat) [[]Did not measure marble base] 6.5" wide 14" long
It has a mark on the lower left front that says "ROMAN BRONZE WORKS N.Y." Also on top of the "ground" it says:
Copyright by FredericRemington
its on a black and white marble base.
I did not see any other marks. If there is some other place I should look, or if anyone has any information I'd love to hear. Thank you.

Numbered engraving of Cheyenne Scouts Patrolling... Several years ago I happened across a framed, numbered engraving of Remington's " Cheyenne Scouts Patrolling the Big Timber of the North Canadian Oklahoma", c. 1889.
I have had it in my possession for 4 years and have yet to have it authenticated.
Any recommendations about this work will be greatly appreciated.

Remington painting I recently found a painting,(canvas pasted-on board) approximately 9"x10''of a sea-sidescape- (sanddunes,water,birds,sky with clouds)signed,"Remington" in the lower right hand corner. I looked up Frederic Remington's signature just on the outside chance that being born and having lived on the east coast he may have painted other(local)scenes. To my surprise I found the signature to be identical--It seems that sometimes he signed his name with just his last name. I realize that Remington is famous for his Western/Native American paintings, but does anyone know if he painted other scenes? The painting is very old. Any information would be greatly appreciated, G.McNulty

"Scalp" by Remington I have a sculpture by Remington that bears the inscription "Frederic Remington, Henry Bonnard Bronce Co. Joondeur New York 1892" on its base. In addition, I have noticed that my piece has the warrior holding the scalp up with his left arm and the horses' left front leg is raised, unlike copies that have the right arm and leg raised. Does this mean anything? I also noticed that most copies that are for sell have a long piece of hair, as opposed to what looks like the actual top part of a human skull attached to a ponytail that the warrior is holding. One other note: the buck knife and circular handbag on his waist are detailed...bag has some sort of bird etched on it. Any comments?

Remington Screen I am writing you for information on a piece of original art work by Frederic Remington. It has been in our family since the early 1900's and consists of three original lithographs under glass, in a wooden panel screen-which we have learned might possibly have been made by the Stickley Company. There were originally four lithographs within this screen (we now only have three). The pastel watercolors are from the group of 'A Bunch of Buckskins' that Remington made for CM Russell, and this piece of furniture depicts this theme with stitched rawhide making up the bottom half of the screen. It is an interesting and extremely old piece of work, and we wonder if anyone has any information on it. The colored pastel lithographs are; "A Trapper," "An Arizona Cowboy," and "A Calvary Officer." The copyright on the bottom left side reads; "Copyright 1901 by Robert Howard Russell." Frederic Remington's signature is also shown, with date 1901 on one of them. This 4 panel screen is quite heavy, possibly made of oak, measuring 71 3/4" across, by 68" high. The upper glass portion that houses the lithographs measure 14 3/4" across by 19 1/4" high. And, like I said the bottom portion consists of a brown rawhide, with stitching, which has become very fragile with age. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much, Elaine LeMasson

Remington./Robert Howard Russell? My mother has been in possession of a framed picture of an adult, male Indian sitting on a horse. He would be facing the viewer. It says copyright Robert Howard Russell, 1901. On the right hand side (both down on the bottom) Frederic Remington, 1901. The back of the frame it says "Joseph Horne Co., Pitt. PA.)
We would be interested in the name of the work, as well as any other pertinent info. It has never been out of its frame., and is in very good condition.
Help? Many thanks.

Remington Ink On Canvas There is an auction coming soon that has two ink on canvas (or at least appear to be ink on canvas)size approx. ten inches by twelve inches each. They seem to be yellowing yet have a clear 'jell coat' on them. If they are genuine, would Remington lay a heavy gouache or tempera over the ink on canvas? One is a 'Prong Horn' leaping straight up in the air over a rattle snake. Prints or copies???????

The last of his race I have a oil on canvas that seems to be hand painted of "The last of his race". The "original" is in the Yale museum. I know from records that this picture has been in the family since around 1910 or before. A local dealer has suggested that it may be a study of the original oil on wood. Does anyone know if this piece was duplicated shortly after Remington died? or could this be a study as suggested.

The Last American I am looking for information on a piece of art by Remington that intrigues me. It is what I would consider a proud and regal Indian. I am sure it is 1908 but I cannot locate anything on it. I have read that the original was sold at the Congress Hotel of Chicago for $1.00 and other considerations in May 1935 and had been sold to that seller by the Doran Galleries in 1925. I would like to see at least a photo of this piece of art, I am a total amateur but do appreciate beauty when I see it. Thank you
