For your consideration is this original photo of freight wagons running the Wilcox & Globe line in the late 1880s to early 1890s, attributed to C.S. Fly, from the W. H. Hattich private collection. William H. Hattich (1871-1964), known as "Billy" by his friends, grew up and attended Tombstone's first school. He first worked as a printer's apprentice in Tombstone before moving to Los Angeles to study typesetting procedures. Returning to Tombstone in 1895, Hattich bought the Tombstone Epitaph and Prospector from Stanley C. Bagg, which he edited for twenty-one years before returning to Los Angeles in 1913. In 1903, he compiled a book titled Tombstone: In History, Romance, and Wealth, which was published by the Tombstone Daily Prospector to commemorate the arrival of the railroad in Tombstone. He was a highly respected Tombstone resident. Willcox also was an important shipping point for supplying mines in southeastern Arizona and Globe with freight wagons. In 1898, a spur rail line was built to Globe. The photo shows five large freight wagons getting ready to set off on their journeys, all with three large wagons and ten to twelve horse teams. Smaller buildings can be seen in the background along with the mountain range. Heavy wear present with scratches and tears, slight staining present. Still in good viewable condition. It measures 4 3/4" L x 8" W and weighs under 6 ounces. Provenance: From the Tombstone Western Heritage Museum in Tombstone, Arizona. P72
