I love this one. Not really in the same era, but a good pic nonetheless!
I can hear the Judge now:
"Hoss thief, you're GUILTY! Barkeep, bring me a COLD Beer!"


"Judge Roy Bean, the `Law West of the Pecos,' holding court at the old town of Langtry, Texas in 1900, trying a horse thief. This building was courthouse and saloon. No other peace officers in the locality at that time."

Yeah, I have a post card of that image. Got it from a friend in Texas that uses it as a calling card (QSL card) for Amateur radio (Ham) contacts, with his call sign on the top. Through my contacts I have collected them from all over the world, (almost every country on Earth) and that one from Texas is still one of my favorites.
