The Cowboy Museum

Research Center

Welcome,the Research Center provides two services:

                First, we provide you with an opportunity to engage a research professional for the purpose of researching the origin and date of origin for particular items.  We have museum members who are specialists in their area of knowledge concerning the Old West and Cowboy Gear.  These members volunteer their services at  a reasonable $ rate and generally will give you a fixed fee to research your item.

                Second, we provide members and serious collectors with a World Wide Forum for publishing their reseach work regarding Cowboy History, Antiques, Memoribilia and Artifacts.  Here we will collect and display the results of their work for others to witness and learn from.    We will also seek to publish questions and answers regard these reseach works and create a forum for discussion and interaction.

To take advantage of our Research Center to research and item for you, please submit your item in the manner discussed in our Item Submission page and note that you wish to engage a research professional to report on the item. 

If you wish to submit your own research work for publication, please email the proposed document to us and note that you wish to have the document published in the Research Center.  We will review the document and reply to you regarding our acceptance and the date the document will be published.
