William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody poses for
a portrait signed and presented to Rachel Salsbury, wife of Nate Salsbury,
owner and manager of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. Cody wears a wide-brimmed
hat with one side slightly tipped up, probably a Stetson, and has
long, dark hair and a goatee and moustache. He wears a shirt embroidered
with small flowers and buttoned to its collar. The portrait was probably
