This double-sided 19” by 25” framed item includes a 22 March 1968 newspaper front page and main story about the murder of Nevada Sheriff William Henry Pascoe. The newspaper includes a copy of the wanted poster distributed after Pascoe’s murder in 1893. Yellowed with age, some small tears and holes. The reverse of the frame contains a small “$550.00 REWARD” flier for William Fredericks, the murder of Sheriff Pascoe, and is undated. The top of the poster is marked with remnants of light blue ink, which seems modern, that has been partially rubbed away. Below this item is a smaller card advertising Fredericks’ wanted status, and offers $500.00. For fans of outlaws and wanted posters from the Old West, this is the lot for you! Framed and ready to hang. - Jacobitz Collection -60260
