Scotty & Claire Zion Estate Western Art & Collectibles

Auction Details

Western Art, Bronzes, Western Gear, Firearms & Collectibles, from the Scotty & Claire Zion Estates, Great Falls, Montana. The Zions grew up as second generation Montana Homestead and Depression Era kids which molded their work ethic, belief system and generosity for others. They spent many fun times at their family cabin, working at their Wagon's Wheel West Motel in Augusta, Montana, restoring the Zion School, and building their dream home outside of Great Falls. Scotty started his construction and house moving business in the 1940's, making near impossible building moves of bridges, multi-story brick buildings, and grain elevators. They both loved history and art. Scotty was a Top Hand for the CMR Museum and he moved Charlie's house and renovated Charlie's studio. They attended many CMR Art Auctions, purchasing several art pieces and becoming friends with many artists.
This auction features their extensive collection, as well as items from select guest consignors.
