Aged vintage collage poster covering the hidden erased history of old west lesbian gunslingers — This warm sepia-toned wild west promotional graphic uses a scrapbook layout of faded period-style photos to showcase overlooked queer women of the American frontier. The collage features portraits of armed outlaws, horseback riders, frontier doctors, saloon card players, and queer couples alongside period artifacts including pocket watches, leather goods, and ammunition. The nostalgic respectful aesthetic amplifies little-documented western history that was omitted from mainstream accounts.

**Available now: The Women They Erased** The West remembered the guns, the gambling tables, the stagecoaches, the badges, the saloons, and the bodies left behind, but it was far less willing to remember the women who stood beside these notorious figures, shared their homes, kept their books, rode the same trails, and loved them through lives that were often every bit as dangerous as the legends themselves. In this adventurous, romantic, and deliberately provocative what-if history, eight women — gamblers, gunfighters, stagecoach guards, doctors, bounty hunters, freight operators, ranchers, and former outlaws — emerge from faded photographs, letters, court records, newspaper clippings, and half-forgotten stories, revealing a West shaped not only by violence and survival, but by jealousy, devotion, scandal, loyalty, and relationships later reduced to words like companion, associate, housekeeper, and friend. The Women They Erased is a sweeping alternate-history tale of gunfire, forbidden love, frontier survival, dangerous reputations, quiet domestic victories, and the women whose stories might have looked very different if history had chosen to remember all of them.
