With their Helena, Montana imprint on verso and in pencil 1894. Recto shows an image of a man standing with his rifle besides a wooden house; a second man's arm and his carbine, which rests on a chair, can be seen to the right.

Interesting. The rifle appears to be a 1894 Winchester and the picture was taken in 1894.   The rifle must be brand new.

By the way Steve, I want to join those who have thanked you for posting these pictures.  I enjoy them.

I believe that 2nd rifle (and arm) belongs to River City John!

I was going to do rabbit ears behind his head, but the photographer was too quick.
