January 10, 1999 - "I’ve been watching those horses for years coming out of the Virginia Range", said Fred Boyce, an artist who lives in Hidden Valley. "I think it was that very herd that got shot". Mr. Boyce is donating 1500 prints, signed & numbered of his painting, "Mustangs", to help the remaining free-roaming wild horses of Storey County, after authorities discovered at least 34 mustangs shot to death in the mountains just east of Hidden Valley on 12-27-98.

These horses are the progeny of Wild Horse Annies’ wild horses that spurred her on a long gruesome journey that ended in the passage of the 1971 Wild Horse & Burro Protection Act. Annie always said battles may be won but the war will continue for the protection & preservation of wild horses & burros.

The prints are $100, tax free, & ALL proceeds go directly to Virginia Range Wildlife Protection Association (VRWPA)(501 c 3 non-profit organization) in Storey County, Nevada, to help & protect the remaining free-roaming wild horses with alternate water sources, fencing to protect them from motorists, and for any injured horses.

To reserve a print call now at (775)828-1202 or Fax (775)882-7605, Eagle Valley Frames. For further information call Lydia Hammack, president VRWPA, at (775)847-7199, web site: http://members.aol.com/vrwpa/
