TEXAS RANGER MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING Folks, in our old pioneer days, the sides of law and order were often blurred. It was not uncommon for the bad guy to become a good guy or the badges found worn by the outlaws. Such was the case in this fantastic story entitled: BUCKSHOT ROBERTS’ FINAL SHOOTOUT By John S. Haines FACTUAL REPRESENTATION NOT RETREAD HISTORY Friends, it was especially common for the sides to be mixed up when the returning Confederate Veteran came home to find a find a Carpetbagger Governor of his state and law – well, it was kinda one-sided. In this story even Billy the Kid wore a badge. Here is the story entitled BUCKSHOT ROBERTS’ FINAL SHOOTOUT where the talented western author brings the two side of law to life and, writes of the life and death of a vaunted Texas Ranger.. 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 the Texas Ranger Lawmen 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. Here’s one of ‘em.

Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western heroes.

Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive. I hope you appreciate the effort. BUCKSHOT ROBERTS’ FINAL SHOOTOUT By John S. Haines Sooner or later - Genealogists are going to realize that their family kinfolks are laying on some dealer's dusty shelves.

Haines 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.
