= Notorious portrait showing a nude woman under a thin black veil.

Boyer's "I married Wyatt Earp", Josephine Earp's biography (1976). There are speculations that C.S. Fly, who owned a studio in Tombstone, Arizona, is the photographer. The photo was distributed by Pastime Novelty Company, New York.
