Should I read that as an "Uncle" from Slim?

I'll give you this - He carried a "Wild" in front of his given name, like numerous other Old West characters. Dontcha kinda like his outfit?

The only one I can think of is Wild Bill Hickok. But I doubt that is him with a S&W.

Slim got another one right. It's definitely not Wild Bill Hickok.

'Fraid not. Remember, his name is "Wild Ben ________".

Probably gonna have to give up on this one shortly, 'cause he is pretty obscure.

Obscure

? Maybe don't know him, but he look to be a fine cut of a man!

His name was "Wild Ben Raymond". Don't know anything about him, but was hoping some of you might have some info on him, or know of that photo with another name indicated. He definitely looks like someone with an interesting past.

Silver Creek Slim · May 26, 2004, 12:02:18 PM

Google can't find any info on him.

That is the only thing it found for me too. Well, maybe not, Steve Paulsen of Sioux City, Iowa is using that alias.
