Robert W. "Bob" Meyers: Artist of the South Fork [signed]

About Robert W. "Bob" Meyers: In 1960, he moved his family to the 300-acre Circle M Ranch on the South Fork of the Shoshone River near Yellowstone National Park, fifty miles from Cody, Wyo. During the summer of 1970, Meyers was inducted into the Cowboy Artists of America. Tragically Meyers' life and career ended later that same year over a dispute with a neighbor who attempted to have an easement through the Circle M Ranch. Robert Meyers was never able to participate in the CAA annual show, but his art lives on. Both color and black and white pictures of work done by a talented New York Illustrator and later Wyoming resident.
