Buffalo Bill statue at Dennistoun, Glasgow, commemorating the 1891–92 Wild West Show

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The statue in Dennistoun depicting Buffalo Bill (Colonel William F Cody) on horseback commemorates his Wild West Show which ran nearby from 16 November 1891 until 27 February 1892, in the East End Exhibition Building off Duke Street.

Buffalo Bill arrived in Dennistoun with his show in October 1891. Performers included Annie Oakley and George C Crager, a Lakota Sioux interpreter, who donated or sold several objects to the Kelvingrove Museum. These included The Ghost Shirt, said to have been worn in the Wounded Knee Massacre, which was displayed there until it was returned to Wounded Knee Survivors Association in 1998.

The statue was provided in 2006 by developers of the adjacent flats in Whitehill Street, and officially unveiled by MSP Paul Martin.
