For your consideration is this Jesse James Memorabilia Collection. Provenance: Tombstone Western Heritage Museum, Tombstone, Arizona. Jesse Woodson James (1847-1882) was an American outlaw, bank and train robber, guerrilla and leader of the James–Younger Gang. James's turn to crime after the end of the Reconstruction era helped cement his place in American life and memory as a simple but remarkably effective bandit. During the Populist and Progressive eras, James became an icon as America's Robin Hood, standing up against corporations in defense of the small farmer, robbing from the rich and giving to the poor. There is no evidence that he shared the loot of his robberies with anyone other than his gang members; they alone enjoyed the riches with him.
