I wonder when the wagon was painted and if that paint was made from indigo dye. That color is very odd but if that was all that they had, and it preserved it, then the color is the most beautiful in the world. Delighted to see that the history of the early Pioneers is being preserved for future generations. They were a different breed of people back then. Very strong willed and determined.
So important the past is preserved. It's recently become very stylish among some to destroy or re-write history to suit their current day political agenda. We need to defend against that.
It's always very interesting to learn and examine the different stages of history, especially here in the US. The size of those wheels were essential to crossing the thousands of miles from the east to the west. It's the same reason that off-roading vehicles now generally have much bigger tires that can traverse rocks, streambeds and all manner of uneven terrain.
Amazing to find one that old in such good condition.
Amazing craftsmanship. Thank you for sharing the journey of transporting and preserving a part of history.
Totally want to visit the exhibition.

Nicht zu danken.😁
Turn down the music, it shouldn't compete with what you have to say. If i want to hear music i will watch a music channel.
