"As for the item being a drop hitch- if you could provide a photo comparison it would be most appreciated. I tried searching myself and could not find one that looked like that."

Rare Jim Younger CDV comes to the Northfield Historical Society

Open Ted Yeatman’s book on the James-Younger Gang, Frank and Jesse James: The Story behind the Legend, and you’ll come across a rare photo of Jim Younger in the second set of photographs just after page 320. This photo of Jim was taken during Christmas 1875 — less than a year before the failed Northfield bank…

Nick, I see that you are a participant on "Find A Grave" and your bio says that you have a daguerreotype of the Reverend Robert Sallee James who was the father of Jesse and Frank James.  I have only seen one historically accepted image of Reverend James.  Is that the one you have or do you have another one?

"Wow- it's been a very, very long time since I've been on there! Haha, it even says I'm 18. 

Anyways- my daguerreotype of Robert Sallee James is unpublished- it came (again- don't have all the info in front of me.... it's been awhile since I really went through all these things) from a town I think was called Placerville? Does that sound right? I believe that is what my documentation said. Anyways, tucked away in the case was a slip of paper that stated 'Rev. R.S. James 1850"'.


Nick, I see you updated your bio significantly.  As I remember, you said you started collecting around 2006.  It's pretty amazing that in a few short years you have what would be considered the finds of a lifetime for most collectors.  Among them:  a Jesse James signature, a Wyatt Earp photo, and an image of Reverend Robert Sallee James.  I hope you'll share the image of James so those of us with an interest in the James family can compare it to the one historically accepted image of him that exists.  Having a slip of paper tucked in the case with a date and name seems just a little too tidy to me.  As you know, James died in 1850 of cholera in the California gold rush town of Hangtown.  Placerville didn't officially become the name of the town until 1854.

Nick, I noticed your comment about the article "The Beast that Looked Like a Man?" in the December, 1958 issue of True West, so I've attached it below.
