I believe this photograph of Calamity Jane was taken when she was working in Wild West Shows and Exhibitions in the 1890-1900 period.   She is dressed in a fine wild west show type costume.   She has a beaded bib shirt front and beaded cuffs; the shirt is also fringed.   She is wearing shotgun chaps and a pistol (probably a Colt) in a slim jim type of holster with the handle facing out.   Some of the studio background has been tinted red.   I do not know if this photographer originally took this photograph but it was produced by Baker & Johnston in Evanston, Wyoming & Rock Springs, Wyoming.   These were sold easily as souvenirs.   It is a very well known and published image of her.
