CODY-THE LEGEND--This is a "pencil" of William F. Cody
in his later years. This piece was drawn using a very obscure photograph
for reference that Karchner obtained from an anonymous source in
Washington, D.C. This “pencil” is soon to be archived in the Buffalo
Bill Historical Centers private library. For a library of 250,000
photos, the BBHC was shocked they had never seen this portrait of Cody.
What a find on Karchners' part!
