William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody opened the Irma, named after his daughter, in 1902,and he maintained two suites and an office there. Its location in Cody (which Buf-falo Bill founded in 1895) was an ideal stopping place for folks riding the train to Yellowstone National Park. Financial difficulties compelled Bill to sign the hotel over to his wife, Louisa, in 1913. Upon Bill’s death in 1917, the bank sold the hotelto Barney Link, who sold it back to Louisa. Upon her death in 1925, the Irma wassold to Henry and Pearl Newell. When Pearl died in 1965, she left the hotel’s collection of Buffalo Bill memorabilia to the Buffalo Bill Historical Center. The Irma Hotel is still open today.

Accompanying the register stand is a signed letter from a previous owner, Tom Dooley of Dooley Arts (Colorado Springs, Colorado), who outlines some of the purported provenance. In April 1914 it was placed in hotel storage in Cheyenne (included in the lot is a baggage claim check), and then in 1982 when it was purchased by Robert Turner of Cheyenne. Dooley purchased it in 1999.
