Buffalo Bill Wild West In Paris, 'Amazonen'

Postcard shows members of Cody's American Amazons, performers from Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, during a parade in front of the Galerie des machines (left), Paris, France, circa 1906. Labelled here as 'Amazonen,' the horsewomen are dressed in campaign hats and military styled uniforms; they are followed Native Americans also on horseback. The postcard was one of a series printed to commemorate the Wild West Show's Parisian residency at the galerie, which had been built for the 'Exposition Universelle of 1889' world fair.
