Old Cowtown Museum originally started as a shrine to the pioneers and founders of Wichita. It later reinvented itself according to Hollywood�s version of the Old West. After the peak of Western films; the museum once again updated its theme to reflect Wichita�s agricultural history. In recent years; Old Cowtown Museum has become a nationally recognized and accredited living history museum. A product of 1950s Old West nostalgia; it has become one of the most beloved of all of Wichita�s museums and institutions. Inside this book is the story of how Old Cowtown Museum became the regional and cultural attraction it is today; along with images of the museum throughout its 66-year history; including people; events; and stories; many of which have never been published before.
