Here is a photograph of a Wild West Show performer/trick shot shooting backwards using a mirror to see his target. Several of the trick shooters performed this trick. He is not identified. He is using a Colt pump rifle and has 4 more rifles in a rack at his feet. Also attached to the rack is his gun belt with a double action colt in a holster and his ivory or pearl handled knife in its sheath. His saddle shows on the other side of him.  Image is by Brown & Co., Valparaiso, Indiana. Dates circa 1885-1890 and is a faded albumen image.
