Among The Lone Ranger's (John Reid) family heirlooms, one can find a White House paperweight given to him by Theodore Roosevelt, a horseshoe belonging to his beloved horse Silver, the last remaining silver bullet, and ivory figurines gifted by Sarah Bernhardt.
Heirlooms bring together personal remembrances and the public history, and this collection demonstrates that objects exemplify the rich layers of recollection.
