Notes
Formerly F26321.; Photoprint is half of a stereograph.; Title inked on photoprint with: "#1648." Inked on paper mount: "Earley [sic] days in the west - These men, shot in a danc [sic] hall, and their bodies thrown out on the sidewalk - The young boy standing in doorway of the next building, peaking [sic] around the corner, was the late "Judge Colbourne" of Salt Lake City Utah. Later, when he was a grown man this stereoscopic picture was purchased from an itinerant vendor by the Judge, who at once recalled the scene. I believe the place was Old Carbon, Wyo, before the advent of the Union Pacific Ry."; R7100219414
