I believe this cowboy's clothing may well be his own as they fit very well down to his gauntlets. However, I think the photographer may have furnished all the weapons due to the over amount of them. He holds a 1873 Winchester rifle and wears TWO holstered Colt SAA's. One in facing backwards and the other handle (ivory) in facing forward in cross draw. He also has a knife (minus sheath) stuck in his belt in a very dangerous location. At any rate, these are very valuable and desirable cabinet images to the collector AND show the gear and guns of the period.   It is a sharp, clear and very well done photograph by Bromer, Garden City, Kansas. in the late 1880's or early 1890's.
