This cabinet card depicts a cowboy in a frontier outfit well heeled with two Colt single action armies and one Colt Burgess rifle. The Burgess helps date the photo because the Burgess was made between 1883 and 1885 and chambered for .44-40 cal.only. Likey, the ivory gripped Colt SAAs are chambered the same. A cabinet card by C.H. Wells of Denver. 4 in.x 8 in. Lightly foxed corners, very good condition. Pencilled notation on the reverse. Robert Coelln Collection
