Featured in this lot is this Extremely Rare C. S. Fly Cabinet Card of Two Cowboys, circa 1879 to 1896. Provenance: Tombstone Western Heritage Museum, Tombstone, Arizona. Camillus "Buck" Sydney Fly (CS Fly, C. S. Fly, C S Fly, Buck Fly) was an Old West photographer and lawman 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. His photographs are legendary and highly prized. Based in Tombstone, Arizona Territory, C.S. Fly documented the peace treaty between Apache Chief Geronimo and the U.S. Army in 1886, as well as other iconic moments of the Old West. Fly gained access to some of the most iconic names of the 19th century: Apache Chief Geronimo and the bandits behind the shootout at the O.K. Corral. Without his studio in the notorious boomtown of Tombstone, Arizona Territory, we would be sorely lacking some dimension to our ideas of the frontier. While Fly didn't get any photographs of the actual gunfight which only lasted approximately 30 seconds, he did manage to capture both the outlaws and the lawmen on film before and after the bloodshed. Fly also served as Cochise County Sheriff from 1895 to 1897. Fly's images are very collectible and command premium prices today. This albumen cabinet card photograph displays two young cowboys, one standing and one partially sitting, in Fly's Tombstone studio. Along the lower border is printed, "Fly's Gallery, TOMBSTONE A. T." On the reverse is printed, "Flly's Photographic Gallery, 312 FREMONT STREET, TOMBSTONE, A. T. Copies may be had at any time." Museum code on top centre, "P117". Cabinet card is in amazingly preserved condition, age tanning observed. Measures 4.25"W x 6.5"L, clear protective sleeve is 4.5"W x 8.875"L. Combined weight is U6.
