A mother of two, she often found employment as waitress, laundress, or dance hall girl and was more likely to be wearing a dress than buckskin. But she was hard to ignore when she’d had a few drinks, and she exploited the aura of fame that dime novels created around her, even selling her autobiography and photos to tourists.Gun toting, swearing, hard drinking—Calamity Jane was all of these, to be sure. But whatever her flaws or foibles, James D. McLaird paints a compelling portrait of an unconventional woman who more than once turned the tables on those who sought to condemn or patronize her.

Perhaps if Calamity Jane had been wearing this skirt, she would not have found herself in so many calamities. Here's a thing or 3 about this skirt: it's long, long enough so it doesn't catch in our boots; it never wrinkles even after a long day of cattle roping; it's smooth and soft and dense and drapey enough to wear all day in the saddle, side saddle anyway, and twirly enough to take the dance floor in the evening.

This 1953 musical is very much a vehicle for Doris Day, in the title role, as a wild cowgal who can outshoot and outsing any boy on the range. When an actress arrives in Deadwood and uses her feminine charms on Jane's secret love, Wild Bill Hickock (Howard Keel), Jane tries to mend her tomboy ways. Not exactly up to the feminist code of honor, this is still energetic and Day is very perky. Of course, one could almost detect a homosexual undercurrent with the cross-dressing Jane, but this was Hollywood in the 1950s, so we best not. This won an Oscar for Best Song--"Secret Love," by Sammy Fain and Paul Francis Webster.

Martha Jane Cannary-Burke, better known as Calamity Jane May 1, 1856 - August 1, 1903, was a frontierswoman and professional scout best known for her claim of being a close friend of Wild Bill Hicko.

Doris Day is at her best as the roughest, toughest, rootin'-tootin' gal of the wild West, riding, roping and shooting her way through a jamboree of action and hit songs. Howard Keel is her on-again, off-again paramour Wild Bill Hickok, who only begins to realize his feelings for her when she makes a stab at being more "feminine." This classic Warner Bros. musical features a Sammy Fain-Paul Francis Webster score, including the Oscar-winning song, "Secret Love."

Disabled in a motor vehicle accident at age 19, author Cale Kenney survived one of the most radical female amputations performed. Writing from the perspective of amputee "peer visits," Cale answers the question, "What happened to you?" and exchanges stories at bedsides of those who have lost, or are about to lose a limb. Describing the accident's initially grim impact and her recovery process to individuals facing the trauma of limb loss, the storytelling also heals this veteran amputee. Throughout "Have Crutch Will Travel," Cale testifies in graphic honesty about confronting deep loss, investigates women's issues of beauty and body image, and illustrates with humor her misadventures on crutches. Whether she is chasing a potbellied pig, "one crutch to walk, one to whack," or losing a crutch in the Atlantic Ocean or the Colorado River, she transforms the silly into the sublime. Celebrating the mountain experiences she discovered through skiing—a spiritual journey to a peak experience—Cale's memoir is a testament to the strides made by disabled athletes prior to the passing of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Inspiring readers who may be having doubts in their lives, Cale's descriptive prose quickly mesmerizes her audience and invigorates those without hope, while offering an inviting look into the life of an active, modern day Calamity Jane.

Fictional love as a middle aged "night life" reporter from Kansas City is forced to retire early, purchases a motor home and stikes out to discover what's out there in the literary world on his own. He meets a gourgous, troubled female on his very first day of freedom. He wrangles an interview for purely selfish reasons and dicovers that she is a distant decendant of the fabled Calamity Jane from (1863) Princeton, MO. Christine Cannary McClanahan, (the gorgous red head) becomes John Bikerdyke's love interest and with several setbacks and ironic developments, the couple eventually embark on a plan to do biographical interviews of ordinary, but unusual life stories of people of interest. About half the book is about Christine's life in a small town as an owner of a quick-stop and her descriptions of the life of her great, great, great grandmother, Calamity Jane, when she was a child, age eleven to thirteen. Documentation taken from a delapidated 4th grade reader with signatures and twelve entries (scribbles) believed to be from Jane, herself. Other biographical interviews are produced by the traveling duo (John and Christine) for television purposes involve a wonderful, true story about James and Luisa McGuire, a WWII couple that survived war in Italy and witnessed the hanging of Musolini. (The Italian Girl and the Soldier)-self published by this author. A heartwarming and very descriptive interview with miraculous events that eventually lead to a ranch in Missouri, sixty-five years later. The biographical couple (John and Christine) continue to interview and tell stories of outstanding and spellbinding experiences of ordinary people. Verna's story is exceptional, in that she is eighteen and pregnant, when she and her younger brother hop a frieght train in Fargo, North Dakota during the great depression and the dust bowl days, to pick apples in Yakima, Washinton. Verna was ninty-six years old during this interview and she now lives in Sun City, Arizona. She made it big. This book is 173 pages, mostly true, except for the fictional characters and imbellishments that I have added to make it an interesting read. There is some sexual tension but no vivid descriptions of love. There are a few mild curse words. It's a good, clean book.

This Calamity Jane vintage tin sign measures approximately 18-inches by 12-inches. Unlike most tin signs, we design and make our signs in the United States using 24 gauge American steel and a process known as sublimation, where the image is baked into a powder coating for a durable and long lasting finish. We then perform a vintaging process by hand to give this sign an aged look and feel. This sign is drilled and riveted for easy hanging.
