Finger-Rotated Dental Drill (1870s)  This unusual six-inch-long drill was attached to a thimble that held it in place while the spindle was rotated by the dentist's finger at a rate much slower than other dental drills of the era, which used bow action, hand cranks, foot pedals and ultimately, electricity
Early 19th century dentures made from gutta-percha. These dentures were under construction. They are only partially made. Note that the two dentures are clipped together with wire. The dentist first added thin layers and scraped and hand cut the set so that they fit the patient. Once the dentures fit well, the wire was removed and the tooth cavity was hand shaped and the teeth were applied. Generally, teeth in this vintage dentures came from cadavers.

Images of America: Evanston (Wyoming) by Barbara Allen Bogart and the Unita County Museum. "Evanston's identity as a railroad town is reflected in this portrait of the workers at the roundhouse around 1880. The roundhouse, built of native stone, was constructed in 1871 and used to service steam locomotives on the newly completed transcontinental railroad."

Wyoming became the 44th state on July 30, 1890. The Bureau of Land Management administers more than 17.5 million acres of public lands and 40.7 million acres of federal mineral estate in Wyoming. The state’s rugged and historic lands are rich in legend of outlaw activity in the late 1800s, most notably Butch Cassidy and the Wild Bunch Gang.

With the arrival of commercial safety bicycles in the 1880s, the aristocratic society of the Continent responded great.  One group that really made daily news was the lovers. Young men and women deep in love wanted a space for flirtation. Since cycling was accepted as a social form of recreation, it was the easiest thing to ride away with boyfriend from the watchful eye of the parent or chaperon.
