This copy is the Jerome Peltier copy, with a laid-in, three page handwritten letter from Joseph Stremel dated 1/7/54.

Both incidents happened in or near the building Stremel used as his shop. Laid in also is a magazine article, "The West's Top Triggerman", by J. L. Beardsley. This copy good, soiled with some spots, & with wear on the bottom edge of the back cover.
