There is a fine D.F. Barry photograph of Sitting Bull which measures about 6″ x 8″. Barry’s blind stamp is found on image & mat and other descriptive information on reverse. There is a 5″ x 14″ image of Kaloma, one of the great classics of Western American images, Kaloma has traditionally been said to be Josephine Earp, wife of Wyatt Earp. Early auctions usually marketed this exotic image as Mrs. Earp. There is a large 12-1/2″ x 9-1/2″ albumen by Grabill, Deadwood, SD of about 20 cowboys brandishing a variety of Winchesters and Single Actions with William Cody sitting on horse in background. This image clearly shows varying types of pistol rigs & prairie belts, different styles of holsters and variations in Colt grips of wood, rubber & what appears to be carved ivory or mother of pearl. CONDITION: Cabinet cards appear very good to fine overall, though not inspected out of frames. Barry photograph of Sitting Bull also appears fine. Image of Kaloma appears very good to fine with light soiling & foxing at edges. Large mounted albumen is good to very good, there are 2 tack holes in upper right corners, the original mounting board trimmed on top, bottom right corner is bent, other areas of border soiled & stained, image has a 3/4″ circular “halo’d” light area through face of one cowboy in center of photograph as can be seen in photos. 4-48092 JS (6,000-8,000) – Lot 1450
