Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum Showcases New “Lonesome Dove” Photography Exhibition

Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum Showcases New “Lonesome Dove” Photography Exhibition

By Pat Treviño, Cuero Online News

CUERO, TX -The Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum has opened a powerful new exhibition celebrating one of the most enduring Western stories in American literature and film. The showcase, titled “Lonesome Dove,” is now on display through July 11, 2026, offering visitors a rare visual journey into the making of the acclaimed 1989 CBS miniseries.

Based on Larry McMurtry’s Pulitzer Prize–winning novel, Lonesome Dove follows two retired Texas Rangers who push a cattle herd from the Rio Grande all the way to Montana, carving out the first ranch in the territory. The novel’s sweeping narrative and unforgettable characters captured the imagination of readers nationwide, and the television adaptation introduced the epic tale to millions more.

The museum’s new exhibition brings that world to life through the lens of Bill Wittliff, the celebrated photographer, writer, and executive producer of the miniseries. His images—far more than standard production stills—reveal the grit, scale, and artistry behind the filming. Each photograph reflects the intersection of storytelling, history, and visual craftsmanship that made Lonesome Dove a cultural landmark.

This traveling exhibition was developed by The Wittliff Collections at Texas State University and is presented in partnership with Humanities Texas, the state affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Together, these institutions have created an experience that honors both the creative legacy of the miniseries and the broader heritage of the American West.

The exhibit is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Chisholm Trail Heritage Museum, 302 N. Esplanade in Cuero. Museum staff encourage visitors not to miss this limited‑run opportunity to explore one of Texas’s most iconic stories through a new artistic lens.

Update: Cuero Record Confirms Printing Continues Despite Office Closure

By Pat Treviño | April 28, 2026

Times Media Group President Steve Strickbine reached out to me directly yesterday evening to clarify the status of The Cuero Record following community concerns about whether the newspaper was still being printed. According to Strickbine, the Record continues to publish its print edition, and subscriptions remain available, despite the closure of the longtime Main Street office.

Strickbine explained that the office was shut down because the building remains under the ownership of former publisher Jim Moser, who plans to sell the property. With no local facility, the Record no longer maintains a newsroom or staff presence in DeWitt County. For now, the Cuero Chambers of Commerce are assisting by allowing readers and advertisers to pick up newspapers and make payments at their offices.

While printing continues, there are no known full‑time reporters assigned to cover DeWitt County, and TMG has not indicated when — or if — a dedicated local journalist will be hired. Strickbine said the company is still evaluating staffing needs across Texas after acquiring more than 30 newspapers, relying heavily on a statewide network of freelancers whose availability for Cuero coverage remains uncertain.

Strickbine also noted that the DeWitt County Historical Commission may contact TMG to pick up any remaining photographs still in the company’s possession. He added that arrangements can be made with staff for anyone needing to retrieve additional photos or historical materials that were part of The Cuero Record’s archives — at least while they still have access to the building.

For now, the message to the community is clear: The Cuero Record continues to print and continues to offer subscriptions, but the future of its local reporting footprint — and its long‑term presence in DeWitt County — remains unsettled.
