n.d. (circa 1890) · Brooklyn, N.Y.
by Cody, William F.
Brooklyn, N.Y.: Stacy, n.d. (circa 1890). A cabinet card with a black and white photograph of 3 7/8 by 2 3/4 inches mounted on an original printed, cabinet card of 5 7/8 by 4 3/8 inches created by Charles E. Stacy of Brooklyn, New York. Buffalo Bill is dressed in western gear wearing a decorated vest with fringe, white gauntlet gloves with one had on his wide belt and the other holding the muzzle of a rifle. The card has a crease at the lower left corner not affecting the photograph, but running through the facsimile signature. At the bottom of the card there is the printed signature of William F. Cody | "Buffalo Bill". Cody's pose seems to be uncommon as I have not seen any similar images in any auction catalogs or internet listings.
