EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the excitement and anticipation of the Oklahoma Land Rush in 1889. The image showcases a long line of people outside the land office at Guthrie, Oklahoma, on that momentous first day - April 22nd. The contemporary American wood engraving beautifully depicts this historic event. In this snapshot from history, we see men from all walks of life eagerly waiting their turn to stake their claim in the newly opened territory. Clad in late 19th-century attire with distinctive moustaches and uniforms, these frontiersmen are united by a shared dream of finding prosperity and carving out a new life for themselves. The building housing the land office stands as a symbol of hope and opportunity amidst an expansive frontier landscape. It represents not only access to fertile lands but also signifies westward expansion and manifest destiny - key themes that shaped America's history during this time period. The presence of soldiers reminds us that this was not just an ordinary race for land; it was orchestrated by the US Army to maintain order during what became known as one of the most chaotic events in American history. This print is a testament to the determination and spirit of those settlers who participated in the Oklahoma Land Rush. It serves as a reminder of our nation's relentless pursuit towards progress and growth through homesteading and westward expansion into Indian Territory.
