☞Today in Old-West History -- On today’s date 140 years ago during the Victorian Era on Wednesday, November 29, 1882, notorious Old-West female outlaw Anna Emmaline McDoulet (1882-1978), better-known as “Cattle Annie,” was born at the city of Lawrence in Douglas County, Kansas. McDoulet, is best-known as the partner-in-crime of Jennie “Little Britches” Stevens (1879 - unknown). Together, they became the famous female outlaw duo known throughout the Indian Nations & Oklahoma Territory as “Cattle Annie & Little Britches.”

Notice that the size of the cigar is smaller in the movies, but on the same side of the mouth. And it appears that the crown is different, but both tend to the "flat" brim.

None...I saw this on "William Shatner's Unexplained" and then found the photo online
The area it came from was an area of the west populated by the fabled "Thunder Birds"
Try as I may, I inspected this image under high resolution with photoshop : I have much experience with PhotoShop I have been using it since 1987! There are no signs of fakery that I can see in the image! Now unless those western bumpkins can create that accurate of a model of a
Pterodactyl !!! ?????

Cool man-made model. Only front edge wing support and rear 'foot' support on the real one. Area 51/nessie and sasquatch equal.

If one believes that Louis L'Amour wrote accurately of Indian folklore, and the Old West, then woolly mammoths were not extinct in the late 1700s. If so, then why not a pterodactyl?

But . . .Old West traveling shows and circuses were quite popular . . .

Neat old photo.
Funny how the human mind decides to doubt first unless said organ was there in person.
Why not consider, investigate. Maybe go out to those very lonesome places and spend some of your life.

In that time period That far west, Hard to believe must have been some talented westerners
Yeah, it's certainly real enough looking. Matches up with skeletal remains/fossils pretty good. I'll go back to a question I posed months back- Why do so many cultures have dragons in their history? Mans hubris remains alive and well. We don't know, that we don't know, what we don't know.
