G.I. Bride statue in Partick Station in Glasgow. Appearing in Bud Neill's Lobey Dosser comic strip, she represents the Scottish women who married American soldiers during WWII, only to find their American dream was not all they hoped it would be. As in this statue by Ranald Maccoll, she's usually seen trying to hitchhike back to her home in Pertick.

The Lobey Dosser statue on Woodlands Road in Glasgow has been given the Duke of Wellington treatment, but given its height, it's not nearly as impressive a feat!

Yee-haw, 26 July is #CowboyDay 🤠…

Bud Neill’s newspaper comic strips (1949–1956) are one of Scotland’s most notable contributions to cowboy fiction, featuring Lobey Dosser, the sheriff of Calton Creek; his 2-legged horse El Fideldo; & resident masked villain Rank Bajin

I said hello to Lobey Dosser, El Fideldo and Rank Bajin when I was in Glasgow today. Always makes me smile to see the statue of Bud Neill’s Sheriff of Calton Creek immortalised in bronze.

G.I. Bride statue in Partick Station in Glasgow. Appearing in Bud Neill's much-loved Lobey Dosser comic strip, she represents the Scottish women who married American soldiers during World War II in the hope of finding a better life in the U.S., only to find their American dream was not all they hoped it would be. As in this statue by Ranald Maccoll, she's usually seen trying to hitchhike back to her home in Pertick.
