Brushy Bill said that he participated in a rodeo in Wyoming in 1899 under the name of Billy Cramer. Here is a photo of Billy Cramer. I will include a photo of a young Brushy for comparison. There are a lot of similarities and some differences but I think they may be the same man. What do you guys think.

clydec Thanks for posting this,it looks like Billy Cramer may have a mole under his eye?,but could be just something on the photo? the nose looks close, imagining Cramer with short hair and a mustache and they may can pass for the same man? Interesting

Wow! Billy Cramer looks alot like me actually. There's a couple of alleged Billy photo's that look like me. Anyway I definitely agree it could be the same man.

Just a turn of phrase. 2 pics, I look at them, they look like the same fella. That's all.

View AttachmentThe photo of Billy Cramer is quite interesting and it’s comparison to Brushy. I have a postcard that identifies the person as Billie the Kid on the bottom of the card, however the body and detail and pose looks identical to Billy Cramer, so what is going on here? I thought it was just misidentification, but looking closer at the face it does look slightly different to me than Billy Cramer the difference is the nose. looking at my postcard on top and a photo of Billy Cramer below it. Is it just me or is the nose different? Very Odd

P. 20, P. 54. Brushy mentioned Wyoming Cramer not found in index of "Alias Billy the Kid", original edition
