Cody wears a derby hat and suit. The woman standing at the far left leaning against the tent pole is Amelia Isaac. Seated to the right of Cody is Rachel Salsbury, wife of Nate Salsbury, who sits on the chair next to her. Nate Salsbury was the owner and manager of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. John Burke, press agent for the shows, stands slightly away from the group in the right background, leaning against another pole. The group is probably in Europe on the second tour of Buffalo Bill's Wild West. Another tent is set up in the right background.Physical Description1 copy photonegative ; 12 x 17 cm (4 3/4 x 6 3/4 in.); 1 photoprint : black and white ; 12 x 21 cm (4 3/4 x 8 in.) on mat 26 x 31 cm (10 x 12 in.)Born-Digital or AnalogAnalogSubjectWild west showsFlags--AmericanBuffalo Bill, 1846-1917Burke, John, d. 1917Salsbury, RachelBuffalo Bill's Wild West ShowCollectionPhotographs - Western HistoryRelated MaterialImage File: ZZR700105135Type of MaterialGroup portraitsPhotographic printsOriginal Material Found in CollectionSalsbury collection, Buffalo Bill's Wild West ShowNotes1-5 handwritten on mat below image correspond to words "Paris 1889 2nd European tour, 1=Amelia Isaac, 2=Cody, 3=Mrs. Nate Salsbury, 4= Nate Salsbury, 5=John Burke" handwritten on back of print.
