Double-sided 10.5 x 28 poster advertising the Kemp Sisters’ ‘Frontier Exhibition,’ billing it as “A Superb Western Spectacle” with “More Realism Than Any Other Exhibition!” The exhibition is said to feature horse-riding, marksmen, Indians, a parade, a cowgirl band, and various other shows and activities. The poster is sandwiched between glass panels for both viewing and stability. Fragile overall toning, several separations, and areas of chipping, otherwise very good condition. The show began as Kemp Brothers’ Show in 1899, but their sisters Lida and Mida thrilled audiences so much with their riding, roping, stunting, and shooting that they soon changed the name of the show. Originates from the Dan Hardesty Wild West Museum collection.
