This circa 1890s photograph  was taken by Weckman in Cincinnati, Ohio. The man is identified as George Berger on the back. I believe, again, this is a Wild West Show type cowboy. He is dressed in white shirt and pants. He has on a black bandanna or scarf. He wears a wide brim cowboy hat and western boots. He is holding a Colt pump rifle (I believe) and the revolver at his feet is a large frame, percussion Army ( I believe staged by the photographer). Of course, this could also be a completely staged image of a stor keeper dressed as a cowboy for a lark. We will never know. Good gear and guns though.
