The Iconic Pawnee Bill and May Lillie
« on: December 29, 2019, 08:38:53 am »
This is the most famous photograph of Pawnee Bill and May Lillie of all.  It has been published endlessly.    May lays her head on Bill's shoulder in this circa 1886-1888 image of the two.    In this historic period, it was very unusual for a couple to display loving emotion in any photograph.   This is the exception.   They were married for 50 years and were devoted to each other.    If you do not have this original photograph in your collection, you do not have a Pawnee Bill collection.   Taken by Swords Bro's, York, Pa.
