NCWHMuseum,Larry Mahan interview for the Rodeo Historical Society Oral History Project

Larry Mahan interview by Gail Woerner for the Rodeo Historical Society Oral History Project
Recorded in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Born in 1943 on a farm near Salem, Oregon, Larry Mahan is the 1966-1970 and 1973 All-Around Champion as well as the 1965 and 1967 Bull Riding Champion. Always a rough stock rider, he earned more than a half-million dollars in a professional career spanning sixteen years. Called the "cowboy in the gray flannel suit" by "Time" magazine, Larry Mahan was among the first professional hands to fly his own plane, conduct rodeo training schools, and hand out business cards on the circuit. After retiring from the arena in 1977, Larry Mahan began a successful business career. This hour-long interview was conducted in Oklahoma City at the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum.

The hour-long interview is available for viewing at the Donald C. & Elizabeth M. Dickinson Research Center, National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

RUSTIC LOG FURNITURE RUSTIC BARNWOOD FURNITURE

with Custom Cut Steel Hardware.

Greater Yellowstone Furniture and Design's rustic barnwood furniture will look great in your home, whether it be a stick home, log home, log cabin or lodge. We purposely do not have a shopping cart system on this site. This is truly a custom barnwood furniture business and we want our clients to voice their own input in the design of our furniture. We like to talk to each client before an order is placed to better understand our client's wishes about how they would like their rustic future to look. Gene Nellis is the designer and builder of our rustic barnwood furniture and frames. This is not a production line type of business.

This is not a production line type of business. Our rustic barnwood furniture and rustic log furniture pieces are truly one-of-a-kind pieces. Our unique, one of a kind, handcrafted, rustic log furniture is made from select timber found in Southwestern Montana's high elevations. No live trees are cut to produce our quality rustic log and barnwood furniture. Only dead-standing, beetle-kill, lightning or wind downed trees are used in order to preserve the natural resources in this area. We go into the forests and "cruise" on foot, the timber stands for the best pieces that will have just the right character and strength for the piece of barnwood furniture or log furniture that will be created.

We also "take down", not tear down old buildings and barns so they may live again with a new purpose, as rustic furniture and barnwood picture frames. Some of the old barns and mills that we take down are reborn into barnwood picture frames or rustic furniture, such as the farm plank dining tables and the rustic barnwood vanity.

Greater Yellowstone Furniture and Designs guarantees that all our products are built to last a lifetime. Gene Nellis, designer and craftsman, has created unique rustic wood furniture, rustic log and barnwood furniture, stone floors and fireplaces in the Greater Yellowstone Area for 20 years. Gene is also a degreed geologist, so he knows how to "rock"!!!�

All materials that are used in this rustic barnwood & log furniture are guaranteed to be made in the United States of America.
