!/2 plate tintype purported to be early image of Dallas Stoudenmire when he was a town Marshal of Socorro, New Mexico in 1878-1880. He became the City Marshal of El Paso, Texas on April 11, 1881 and was killed by James Manning on September 18, 1882 in El Paso.  He was known as a violent man when drunk but a fine shot with a revolver. One of the best.  He had resigned his job as City Marshal and was serving as a Deputy U.S. Marshal of Western Texas and New Mexico appointed by U.S. Marshal Harrington Lee "Hal" Gosling at the time of his death. The image came with his documented leather sap he carried in his pocket. It is quite close in comparison to the image once owned by Bob McCubbin,  just younger and better groomed.
