Original photo of
Cherokee Bill,
probably J. Marvin
Hunter reprint circa
1930, image 9 1/2 X 13",
frame 15 X 12" matches
above photo of The Buck
Gang. Caption reads:
"Cherokee Bill, hung at
Fort Smith, Ark. in
1898, charged with the
murder of six men. In
blood he was part Sioux
Indian, part Cherokee
Indian, part Mexican,
part white, part negro"
in the thinking of the
time, the racial
admixture was the cause
of his criminality. Rare
