eBayers: Maybe You Should Read This Book...

With only eight hours to go, a recent auction of the Kaloma print on eBay stood at less that $100 with 15 bids. The honest seller remarked that the print was "rumored to be Wyatt Earp's wife." But for some reason another eBayer wrote in with this message:
"No rumor. That's Josie."

For a slightly different take on the matter, see the Old West blog.
The author has this to say: "Most people will tell you that the picture shown here is that of Wyatt Earp's wife Josephine Sarah Marcus Earp. Why is it that we believe this? Well it all started with a lie and has grown to the point that the movies Tombstone and Wyatt Earp virtually made it a fact."
