Auction Details

Manitou Galleries and The Coeur d'Alene Art Auction will present their 28th annual "March In Montana Dealer Show & Auction"
March 19-21, 2015, featuring nearly 700 pieces of Western, sporting and wildlife art and sculpture by past and contemporary masters, Indian artifacts and Cowboy collectibles.

The fine art category will include works by: Paul Abram, Jr., Acheff, Afsary, Anton, Aspevig, Baize, Balciar, Baumann, Beecham, Brown, Bunn, Burninghaus, Chatham, Davis, Dunton, Eggenhofer, Fellows, Fery, Fritz, Grelle, Halko, Hampton, Heikka, Herzog, Higgins, Houston, Hudson, Jackson, Johnson, Koch, Laager, Lang, Larsen, LeBlanc, Lone Wolf, Mann, McCarthy, McGary, McKeller, Metz, Mieduch, Mignery, Morgan, Myrah, Nebeker, Newman, Parker, Ace Powell, Dave Powell, Lucien Powell, Prechtel, Red Star, Reed, Remington, Russell, Scott, Scriver, Seltzer, Sharp, Shope, Snidow, Speed, Stack, Stiha, Stavrowsky, Swanson, Andy Thomas, Untiedt, Walters, Walton, Zesch, Zogbaum, dozens more!

The Cowboy collectibles category will include 7 complete silver-mounted parade saddles by makers such as Bohlin, Keyston Bros. and Heiser, along with 3 Bohlin silver-mounted double gun rigs, making up the largest selection of Bohlin material ever offered in one sale at one time in MT. Antique firearms will also be a strong feature, headlined by a Battle of Little Bighorn Springfield 45-70 calibre carbine. This first model 1873 is only 83 numbers away from 39448, a documented carbine captured by the Indians at the Little Big Horn.

MIM consistently features top quality historical Indian artifacts and 2015 will not disappoint with items from the Gregory Perillo collection (NY) including a Crow Woman's beaded saddle, children's items and weaponry. Also offered will be an Arapahoe beaded scalplock warrior's shirt, dozens of fine weavings, beadwork, quillwork, ethnographic items, a Blackfoot teepee back rest and a very early toy teepee.

Full color catalogs are available through our secure website for $30 ($40 foreign).

The 3-day Dealer Show will include top dealers, artists and galleries from around the country, opening its doors to the public beginning at 9 a.m. Thursday, March 19 - Saturday, March 21 at 5 p.m.

A "Hospitality Room" featuring snacks and drinks, as well as a beer and wine bar, is complimentary to all our clients.

All events are free and open to the public and transportation from MIM to other events during Russell Week is offered at no charge.
