Frontier Times Museum is a museum of the American West located in Bandera in the Texas Hill Country. The facility was opened to the public in 1933 by the author, historian, and printer John Marvin Hunter (1880–1957).
The museum is named for Hunter’s popular Frontier Times magazine, which he launched in 1923. It is located at 510 13th Street across from the First Baptist Church. Hunter acquired a house in 1927 to hold his growing collection of materials on the West. He used native building materials, including stone, fossils, petrified wood, and formations from area caves. On display are some 40,000 Old West relics, western art and antiques, and Indian artifacts. There are Chinese temple bells and posters of Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show. Specific exhibits include a printing press, fireplace, cowboy awards, and a small gallery of paintings. Occasional special events are held, such as the "National Day of the American Cowboy" on July 25.
