Desperado, I think

desperado

There’s no identification at all on this old picture.  When I first saw it, I thought, “Desperado!”

And that may be, but his hat’s on crooked and it’s obvious he doesn’t dress like this very often.  He’s wearing suspenders, with both a vest and a coat.  The picture was taken outdoors with some sort of drape or side of a tent behind him.  It looks like there’s a patch over the seat of the chair.  Much used, perhaps.

Otherwise, this man’s identity is lost. I wonder who he was…
