Featured in this lot is this C.S. Fly "Looking South-East" cabinet card circa 1883; Provenance: From the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum in Tombstone, Arizona. The cabinet card features a wonderful shot of Tombstone looking South-East; and includes writing on the back and a museum tag that reads as follows: C.S. Fly - Photo of Tombstone 1883 "Looking South-East". Camillus "Buck" Sydney Fly (May 2, 1849 – October 12, 1901) was an Old West photographer who is regarded by some as an early photojournalist and who captured the only known images of Native Americans while they were still at war with the United States. He took many other pictures of life in the silver-mining boom town of Tombstone, Arizona, and the surrounding region. He recognized the value of his photographs to illustrate periodicals of the day and took his camera to the scenes of important events where he recorded them and resold pictures to editors nationwide. The condition of this C.S. Fly Cabinet card is preserved with some minor wear to the corners and discoloration due to age but otherwise shows a preserved condition. The measurements of this cabinet card is 5 1/4" x 8 1/2".
