The Wells Fargo Bank museum in San Francisco preserves its rugged front with a mint stagecoach and a six gun collection. Curator Irene Simpson guides students and staff through the era of Wells Fargo express routes and stage robberies led by Black Bart. Detailing the outlaw’s 28 robberies, Wells Fargo detectives and historian J. B. Hume recount the period from 1870 to 1884 with hundreds of convictions and several hangings. The bank notes such depictions reflect its history, while acknowledging public property rights in the name and brand.
