Since 1970 . .

. . . Crazy Crow Trading Post has offered American Indian arts & craft supplies, beginning first with custom made German silverwork. As business increased, three silversmiths were needed to meet the demand, and to help with shipping and other operations. Within two years, other products were added and our first catalog (just a price sheet) was printed.

In 1973, Crazy Crow & The American Indian Room opened an Indian store in Dallas, Texas to serve the local community and to handle mail order sales. Silverwork production and other distribution continued to be handled in Denison until 1978, when both operations were consolidated in Denison. During this time, buckskinning, muzzleloading and knife making supplies became an important part of our line and many more new items were added to what was becoming a true catalog.

Now, here we are, over 40 years later. Crazy Crow has grown from a single table at a powwow, to a modern 41,000 sq. ft. office and warehouse complex in Pottsboro, Texas (a few miles from our original Denison location. From a single silversmith selling his work at powwows, we have grown to a staff of over thirty and a growing presence on the Web.

Better is Better

Bigger is often said to be better, but just adding more products to our catalog will not improve our shipping and order completion rates, or help us answer your phone calls or email. While growing in size has certainly let Crazy Crow do many things better, it is our continued focus on customer satisfaction and relationships that has provided that growth. We know it, we remember it, we work on it - constantly.

We are excited about the many ways that technology can help us to do more for you - but we are being careful about our choices - insuring that when all is said and done, that your experience with Crazy Crow will be enhanced by it.

CCTP Growth Continues . .

... through our recent acquisition of the well-known and highly respected Bovis Bead Company of Tucson, Arizona. We are very excited about providing this greatly expanded product line of old-time color seed beads, and other products, to our customers!

These Old Time color seed beads have been carefully recreated to enable crafts people to continue their accurate and skilled re-creation of the 1700's American Indian's beadwork.   Bovis Bead Division
