As we at the Western History Center at Casper College are preparing for a new spring exhibit GLAM: "The West: Past, Present, and Future", featuring the Johnson County War, we are hoping to collaborate with local Wyoming institutions as we frame the event and any related civic themes. In the course of our collections review, we recently discovered two copies of a photograph depicting a hay wagon battering ram constructed during the Johnson County War as well as a note alongside the two images. We were intrigued by the connection of the images to the war and wanted to reach out to you directly. This upcoming spring, we are working to launch an exhibit that seeks to deepen public understanding and reflection around Wyoming’s past. Our goal is to foster thoughtful engagement with the historical event, any tensions, and community impacts raised by events like the Johnson County War. In the spirit of our goal, we are open to and hopeful for any opportunity to collaborate with your institution for our upcoming exhibit. We are writing to inquire about the possibility of including a copy of the battering ram photograph in our spring exhibit, with appropriate accreditation and acknowledgement to your institution? If so, we would also value any contextual information you have available on the material so that we may be able to present the photographs in a way that aligns with, and honors, your work. Thank you for your consideration on this request, and we look forward to any opportunity to build connections between our institutions and contribute to a deepened public conversation about Wyoming’s past.
