Deer Lodge Prison Horsehair Bridle

Informazioni sull’articolo

The horsehair bridle and crop were awarded to Mr. J.E. "Red" McCracken at a rodeo in 1920. It was made in Deer Lodge Prison. Red had one brother, and his other passed away when they were quite young. His father placed them in an orphanage, but their two aunts took them out to live with them at Kings Ranch in Texas. When Red was about 15 or 16, he and his brother rode with a cattle drive in Chicago. The depression hit about that time, so they took their remuda of horses and started with the Buffalo Bill Show. Red rode with the show for several years and one of the things he did was to ride acrss the arena holding a target for Annie Oakley to shoot at. He said she never missed, so he was not afraid to do it. Also, he said she was a real lady. He was a big built man with an Irish temper. He married and became a telegrapher with the railroad for awhile and got to know men in the steel business. He started selling rails and moved to work with Bethlehem Steel. He was instrumental in designing guard rails made from steel instead of old wooden ones. He got to know men working with the highway department and that is where he met our friend, John R. Dietz. Mr. Dietz hired him for a PR person and said he was a great promoter. Red rode in the London Bridge parade when the US purchased it. He also rode from Pennsylvania to Kentucky to dispute the claim on where the long rifle was designed and first produced. Mr. McCracken had one daughter (Maria?) and one or two grandchildren. He was 82 or 83 when he died. The bridle was purchased from Red in Bethlehem, Penn. In 1974 by Roy and Arlene Walters, also of Penn. When he purchased this horsehair bridle from Red, he lived at 404 E High St, Bethlehem, PA. The date of purchase was 1974. Standard size.
