JESSE JAMES REPORTED IN KENTUCKY AFTER BEING SHOT!
A RARE FALSE REPORT OF A SUPPOSED WILD WEST INCIDENT!
Denison Daily News, Denison, Texas
February 4, 1880
Jesse James, the legendary outlaw, supposedly wounded at Shoal Creek, was reportedly taken to Kentucky by two members of his gang and is recovering. There is no truth to the rumor that he was seen in Kansas City. (See the scan for the full report)
Four pages, fine condition. You’ll really like the illustrated ads from the Wild West period, too. Early Texas newspapers are virtually impossible to find, but I’ve priced this issue at a wholesale level.
