Silver gelatin photograph, 6.5 x 4.5 in., capturing Annie Oakley hunting in Pinehurst, NC with her trusted companion, Dave. With verso inscription from Oakley's husband, Frank Butler, in which he describes the scene, plus handstamp from Merrow of Pinehurst, NC. Frank and Annie retired briefly in Pinehurst before resettling in Greenville, OH. Accompanied by documentation attesting that the photograph previously descended through the family of Frank Butler's brother William. Condition: Few light, scattered spots. Three minor light areas of glue bleeding through, likely a result of previously being mounted in an album. Otherwise very fine.
