This image has fooled fools and known collectors for years. It is not Quantrill and is not a photograph. It is a CDV of a DRAWING of what the Yankees thought Quantrill looked like. It is a composite drawn from various descriptions. The Union army had no real photograph of Quantrill so they had this one fabricated and reproduced by Anthony in NY. It has been published so many times that even collectors and historians today think it is of Quantrill and hoist themselves on their own petard but it never was anything of the sort.
