What's wrong with this picture?
I imagine many of you are familiar with this photo which is probably authentic but which has some mis-identification of the men pictured.
Can you see anything that's unlikely?

#3 sure is not Teddy R. plus it looks like he’s wearing a pointy white hat.. Looks like more than a few with the pointy hats. Ahhh, they are just getting ready for some fun later in the day.
Re: What's wrong with this picture?
I think if the guys are who they're said to be, the date the picture was taken is wrong. Roosevelt would only have been 25 years old in 1883, Butch Cassidy would have been 17. It would be much more believeable if it had been taken 15 or 20 years later.

I think it would be unlikely that the Erps would be hunting with Butch and Sundance?
Liver Eatin Johnson would probably be too old in 1883?

Morgan Earp died in 1882.
Morgan Erp on the other hand, I have no idea.
