During our travels, we frequently find hidden treasures like the historic old photos contained on this CD.  Many were taken in the 1930'sby Mary Jane Coulter, and others were taken for the Department of Interior during the 1950's.  They are wonderful, historic images.

There are 43 pictures in all, with notations written on the reverse side of them. A total of 86 images.  We've had a lot of requests for these from our Native American Images  website, so we created this CD for you.  The CD images are 300 dpi, and show great on MACs as well as Windows.  What a neat gift for the rare photo enthusiast who loves high quality printouts.  Click on an image above to get an idea, or go to Native American Images to see the entire collection.

Arbuckles' Ariosa Coffee
"The coffee that won the west"

This is the great Arbuckles' Coffee that is served up at River Trading Post.  It is the coffee that has been around chuck wagons, ranch kitchens and frontier dining rooms for over 100 years.

Old John Arbuckle even put sticks of candy in his bags of coffee back in the 1870's.  The chuck wagon cooks used the candy as an incentive to get their cowboys to grind the next day's supply of coffee beans.

Now you can enjoy the full bodied, aromatic "Coffee that won the west" right in your own home.  Enjoy the sunrise.

One version only - caffeine, beans.

Price: $15.95/lb.
