Cowboy Collectibles for Fun and Profit

Cowboy Collectibles include many pieces you can use to accessorize your home or office. Vintage items like horse bits, cowboy spurs or old prints are all great conversation pieces with an interesting bit of history. Guns are some of the most easily found; gun shows, flea markets, and estate auctions can reveal hidden treasures. Old Derringers or Civil War era rifles can provide hours of thoughts of the past (but have them certified by an expert if you plan to spend a lot). Old chaps, boots, buckles and hats are also easy to find and make great displays. No matter the item, cowboy collectibles are pieces of America’s rich history. Research authentic pieces or simply find decorative objects you admire — just be sure to honor the cowboys of our past.

Cowboy Collectibles may include any of a variety of great accessories to decorate your home, office, or even stables with. From vintage items like horse bits and cowboy spurs to collages you put together from old prints, playing cards or photos, they’re definitely conversation pieces and may also provide a great bit of history to the collector or history buff. What do you first think of when you picture an old cowboy? If your thoughts go back to the reruns of “Gun Smoke” or “Bonanza” or to the old Westerns with John Wayne galloping through the tumbleweeds, you probably think of guns, cowboy hats and horses…all things that can enhance any collection of cowboy-related articles.

Guns may be the most frequently found item: they are interesting objects to search for and make part of your collection. Gun shows, flea markets, even old estate sales and auctions can reveal these hidden treasures. Old Derringers look great on a den or library wall; or if you’re really lucky, maybe a Civil War era rifle is your goal. Whether a Yankee or Confederate at heart, the stories behind the finds can provide hours of thought. Before you spend a lot, have the items certified by an expert or ask the seller to provide proof of authenticity unless or simply looking for decorative pieces and aren’t really concerned about the history of them.

As mentioned, old cowboy hats are great finds also, as are many other clothing items like old leather chaps, cowboy boots or belt buckles. Chaps from the mid-1800′s can run into the hundreds of dollars, but they’ll make a great wall display in your western living room. Old hats are easy to find and display whether they’re on an antique hat rack or in a display case; and old buckles make great paper weights, book ends, and coffee table accessories. Old buckles also tell some intriguing stories of the men who wore them — look for rare pieces with detailed designs.

Cowboy collectibles — pieces of America’s rich history — bring back memories of stage coaches and noisy saloons. Consider them for simply collecting for your own satisfaction or to accessorize a room in your home. Be sure to verify authentic or decorative suppliers online or in antique malls. They are plentiful and varied, so use your imagination in finding the best pieces and displaying them in a unique manner that honors the cowboys of our past.
