Description
This is a photograph of Francis Boardman Eaton aka Pistol Pete taken Sept 16, 1952 at Quigley Barber Shop in Enid Oklahoma by my father Darrel Keahey. I found this 4x5 negative in some of my fathers photo collections along with 2 other negatives; one of Francis in the same doorway but with his pistol holstered and the other with Francis on a horse riding in the Cherokee Strip Parade in downtown Enid. All three are dated the same day. To find out more about Pistol Pete and what kind of a character he was, Bing or Google his name. Enjoy.

Congrats on your sale, Larry. I looked him because I always knew the name but not the story behind the name...a great story indeed!

Thank you Gordon...my dad talked about him many times and he was quite the character
