Texas (AP) — A shotgun that once belonged to Western sharpshooter and entertainer Annie Oakley sold for more than $143,000 at an auction in Dallas on Sunday.
The trove of about 100 of the icon’s items headlining Heritage Auctions’”Legends of the Wild West” event brought in nearly $520,000, according to the auction house.
The items included several guns, her Stetson hat, photographs and letters. Oakley’s great-grandnieces put up the items and had inherited them from their mother, who died in 2009.
