From Prairie to Palace: Buffalo Bill's Wild West in Europe
Preparation for publication of materials related to the tours of Spain
and Italy by Buffalo Bill's Wild West show in 1887-1906. See website at http://www.codyarchive.org.
The Papers of William F. Cody (The Papers) at Buffalo Bill Center of the West collects, edits, and publishes material from the period of William F. Cody's birth to well beyond his death, in print and in an online, open-access, digital edition. The material is published on The William F. Cody Archive and is available at no cost to an international audience of all interest levels. This project will expand the digital scholarly edition to include material associated with Buffalo Bill's Wild West in Spain, Italy, Scotland, and Wales. The Papers staff will organize the materials around the transition of Buffalo Bill’s Wild West from its original incarnation as a frontier exhibition to the cosmopolitan pageant that would be its hallmark on both continents until the European tour closed in 1906.
