This very RARE Vintage 1988 Ben Johnson Celebrity Rodeo Lazy E Arena Oklahoma, USA, Gist Trophy Belt Buckle is a unique piece of collectible craftsmanship by GIST Silversmiths. Handmade in the United States in 1988, this belt buckle captures the essence of Western Americana culture with its intricate design and historical significance. As a piece of memorabilia from the Ben Johnson Celebrity Rodeo, it embodies a sense of authenticity and tradition that would make a valuable addition to any collection of Western artifacts.
NOTES…..Because he had many actors as friends, Ben Johnson held a fundraiser rodeo each year, usually at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma. This buckle is from the 1988 renewal, which featured stars like Tom Selleck, Reba McEntire, Dale Robertson and Linda Blair. Finds raised benefitted children’s medical research and the Children\'s Hospitals of Oklahoma.
