THE TE RANCH Lots 1002-1014 in this
THE TE RANCH Lots 1002-1014 in this auction are associated with Robert & Nell Woodruff's time at the TE Ranch near Cody, Wyoming.
The TE Ranch, established in 1895, was the 8,000-acre Wyoming home of Legendary Buffalo Bill Cody (1846-1917) located on the South Fork of the Shoshone River. At the time of Cody?s death, however, the acreage had been scaled back to around 4,000 acres. Robert Woodruff originally met Colonel Cody while accompanying his father, Ernest, and Charles Wickersham (founder of Burlington Railroad?Wickersham had ?contracted with Cody to keep his crews supplied with fresh meat?) when they traveled from Atlanta to Montgomery, Alabama. Wickersham brought Cody and the young Robert Woodruff back to Atlanta for one of Cody?s national tours.
Robert Woodruff became the fourth owner of the TE Cody Ranch and visited it regularly with his wife, Nell, until 1972. The sprawling ranch and its incomparable mountain/river vistas were enjoyed by Robert and Nell along with their immediate families, close friends, and acquaintances, each provided with and encouraged to wea the TE long-horn steer bolla and TE monogrammed scarf. Hunting, fishing, and riding were celebrated daily.
The TE Ranch along with many of the other Western ranches began commissioning and collecting furniture and accessories designed and custom-made by Thomas Molesworth (1890-1977, referred to as ?The Pioneer of Western Design?, through his Cody-based Shoshone Furniture Company. The jack rabbit cigarette stand in this auction was one of his in-demand accessories and shows his whimsical nature. COWBOY & INDIANS Magazine classified Molesworth?s creations as ?Cowboy High Style?--an interior design flair that ?played up the romantic myth of the cowboy and the West.?
Christie?s in 1995 auctioned approximately 300 of Molesworth creations from the Old Lodge (circa: 1935) in Glenwood Springs, Colorado.
The shoulder-mount Elk in this auction was shot and proudly displayed at this ranch.
