Silent screen star William S. Hart didn’t just play cowboys. Pals with both Bat Masterson and Wyatt Earp, he lived the life on a spread in Newhall, California called Rattlesnake Ranch. Now Florida-based Affiliated Auctions will sell an archive of his western-themed possessions, including the 1907 Colt New Service D/A revolver that he often used in his films. It’s expected to sell at the March 5th auction for $7-$10,000.
Along with the gun, Affiliated will sell Hart’s leather holster, his silver money clip engraved with “Wm. S. Hart/Horseshoe/Ranch/ Newhall Calif,” and his engraved pocket watch, as well as a variety of other memorabilia.
