Dear friend, in the last two weeks, two collectors have purchased 7 of my offerings each (14). There must be a reason.

But you can still utilize the great eCRATER Search function. Just follow the instructions below, place your kin folk name in the search column and it will reveal all the stories I have reported with that name.

MOMAN PRUIETT – GENIUS OF HATE By Charles Dana FAMOUS WESTERN LAWYER MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING FACTUAL REPRESENTATION NOT RETREAD HISTORY Folks, I judge a story by it’s completeness, its apparent accuracy by naming names, date and places - and its story telling. Here is one I knew little about but the author writings compel me to reading, It is rare genealogy at its best and I am privilege to index, print and bind in a plastic cover and include it in this offering for your personal library at no extra charge. It is the story of a pioneer lawyer who went from a jail cell to the pinnacle of success. Along life’s way in Oklahoma and Texas he enjoyed success beyond parallel. His name is in the logbook of criminal cases. Trouble was, he drank himself to death and died a broken recluse. I recommend saving old stories that have been seldom seen or rarely read. As many of you know, I specialize in finding old American history, pictures and stories of long ago. ”MOMAN PRUIETT – GENIUS OF HATE By Charles Dana Please read this. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on eCRATER every day but the rarer ones about the genealogy of families tucked away on a dusty dealer shelf are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of ‘em. FOLLOWING PURCHASE AND PAYMENT, IF YOU WILL WRITE ME OF YOUR SPECIAL NAME OR INTEREST, I WILL DO A FREE SEARCH OF MY COLLECTIN AND UNINDEXED STORIES AND NAMES.

During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. MOMAN PRUIETT – GENIUS OF HATE By Charles Dana Sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves.

It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that. My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the eCRATER entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete and seldom found western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color. As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
