THE NORTHWEST MOUNTED POLICE

ROYAL MOUNTED POLICE
MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING

Folks, here is a seldom found American writing on the founding and history of the Northwest Mounted Police of Canada. It is an account of the establishment in the early years with illustrations by Frederick Remington (cause this was written without index, I have taken the liberty of doing so below). Strangely enough, the Mounties were first organized as a civil body, the officers being magistrates, the men serving as constables, and this brave and brilliant handful of dedicated public servants tamed a wild and dangerous country overrun with hostile Indians and murderous white renegades The story is entitled

THE NORTHWEST MOUNTED POLICE
OF CANADA

by J. G. A. Creighton. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the Royal Mounties of the old west like this one 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 my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. 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.

Folks, sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves. If I can contribute to finding one little name or photo of that long lost ancestor you have been waiting to find, it’s worth all the time I spend.

THE NORTHWEST MOUNTED POLICE OF CANADA

THEY ALWAYS GET THEIR MAN

ROYAL MOUNTED POLICE
MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING

While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. 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 Ebay 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 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.
Buyer pays postage of $3.50 First Class Postage to U. S.; $4.75 Priority; $4.50 to Canada; $11.00 Par Avion (Air Mail) for International Mail. Texans must pay 8-¼ % sales tax. Thanks,
Tom
