Next Historian Rick wanted to move to a knife most collectors and knife lovers could really appreciate. The "Iron Mistress" Well let me just let you read what Rick Baer had to say. "Ever since I was ten years old and saw the Hollywood movie by
Warner Brothers "The Iron Mistress" with Alan Ladd as Jim
Bowie I was hooked on this knife. Ironically, the Iron Mistress knife
has had a very unique story that makes it worthy of the mysteries surrounding
the historical knife James Bowie owned. The knife was made by the prop
department of Warner Brothers for the film. In those days props were
not kept as souvenirs or collectibles but owned by the studio. With
the film completed the props were placed into storage but not for long.
This knife prop would be rented for all of the following productions,
John Wayne's "The Alamo", Republic Pictures "The Last
Command", Desilu's "The Adventures of Jim Bowie" television
series and even Disney's "Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier".
Miraculously, Hollywood kept using the same prop for Jim Bowie's knife
in films about him. Not until recent years as historians have done
greater research into the knife have films begun to depict a more historical
version, see the first knife in our series. Musso Bowie Knife (And
all 200 are sold). From historian Rick J. Baer |
