OLD TEXAS RANGER MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING THE FAST GUN OF BASS OUTLAW By W. T. Wayne FACTUAL REPRESENTATION NOT RETREAD HISTORY Bass Outlaw died anything but a hero yet, during his varied career in the Texas Rangers there were times when he could have died with honors. He took the measure of some of meanest outlaws of the pioneer era but he couldn’t whip the one demon that did him in _: ACHOLOL Folks, here is the story entitled THE FAST GUN OF BASS OUTLAW where the noted author W. T. Wayne recites the fascinating history of one of the stories of the Texas Rangers. History isn’t always kind because the truth must be told but the story of the life and times of Bass Outlaw must be preserved. The frontier demanded it. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on eCRATER every day but the rarer ones about a Texas Ranger gone wrong are seldom found. Collectors treasure them and their price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest.

Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. THE FAST GUN OF BASS OUTLAW By W. T.

T. Wayne OLD TEXAS RANGER MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that. My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the eCRATER entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this old complete and seldom found western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color. As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
