THE WILD WILD WEST --- part 3 --- the wife of buffalo bill...


 sometimes when you dont have much material to work with, you need to pay attention to details... like here the cupped hand gesture for both women is a strong clue that they´re in fact identical..also mark both wear victorian-era skirts, which had a wireframe inside, not as big as those worn some centuries earlier by the baroque french aristocracy, but still you can tell theres wire beneath...both women have it...
the wife of Buffalo Bill I, by the name of Louisa Frederici, was his sidekick in their wildwest-spectacle, and just as skilled with lasso and revolver than him...the wives of the second Buffalo Bill were Maude Lee Cody, but his later and main wifes name was lela marie davis cody. shes the one in the picture above on the right side, the first woman to fly (in a manlifter kite 1902)...
 officially William F. Cody´s family was haunted by misfortunes greater than the famous "kennedy-plague"...the children he had with his wife Louisa were Arta Cody (1866-1904) Kit Carson Cody(1870-76) then Orra Maude Cody (1872-83) and Irma Louisa Cody Garlow (1883-1918) but rest assured they probably all lived long and happy lives under different assumed identities...two pictures further down you will see why...
 this must have been the same woman, who else than a wild showgirl would dare to be one of the first female flight pioneers, an adventure that could have lethal side-effects ? this woman had balls just as big as her husband, or maybe (like so oft in women) even bigger...
 compare orra maude cody´s face to anne frank and you will see why all these people are related, just not in the manner official history tells us.. it takes time and a good eye to put all the puzzle pieces together... anne franks father, otto frank, was one of the greatest masons of his time, founded countless huge companies under diffrent identities that later produced all the war machines, and after the war became the big automotive conglomerates...
 here some more info on both wifes, if you´re interested it also doesnt hurt to pay a visit to jimbo´s wikipedia or break out the britannica or brockhaus...

here another comparison, made from the only handful of pictures i was able to find of her on the web...
