Please limit yourself to just one of the free prints, please (well, I've got to charge something to get our system to accept the order ... so how about a dime?
Picture print of a great old photo: "Buffalo Bill" Cody; Col. “Pawnee Bill” Gordon Lilly and …. C. J. “Buffalo” Jones.
All three of them were contemporaries; they were all larger than life images of the "old" west of the late 1800's and early 1900's. They were all both showmen and get 'er done guys.
FYI - From the web: "GESSFORD, JOSEPH GAYLORD, photographer. [Pawnee Bill, Buffalo Bill and Buffalo Jones.] Mammoth albumen print full length portrait of all three men, 15 1/2 x 12 3/4 inches, c.1909, with photographer's signature in the negative ("Gessford / NY"), crease at upper center and lower center, otherwise very fine, framed.
A handsome portrait of the three "Wild West" stars, likely from a portrait series taken by Gessford to celebrate the merger of Buffalo Bill's and Pawnee Bill's shows." The Early West The Collection of Jim and Theresa Earl
And I just found these 5 sepia toned copies of another Gessford photo that at one time years ago were apparently available at the Buffalo Bill Museum in Cody Wyoming. Here again is the three .... taken in 1909, supposedly. These I've got to charge for, though. And only 5 of them!
