In 1864, Ranks Mercantile, in Virginia City, Montana, sold everything needed to outfit cowboys, miners, respectable (and a few not so respectable) women, and would-be soldiers off to fight in the Civil War. Thankfully, the shelves haven't changed all that much over the last century or two.

Today, in it's original location, the oldest operating store in Montana sells the same styles Calamity Jane saw while shopping, if she wasn't distracted by vigilantes hanging road agents out the back of the store.

To truly get the feel of the old west frontier, slip into our authentic 19th century clothing; the same clothing we sold new in 1864.
