A cabinet card portrait photograph of a man identified as war veteran and U.S. Deputy Marshal, Bass Reeves. Captured in front of a western-themed painted studio backdrop, Reeves stands gazing directly at the camera. He holds a quirt in his proper right hand; wears a moustache, hat, necktie (lightly hand-tinted in red), dark jacket, vest, trousers, and shoes. His star badge and holstered gun (butt out) are visible. Behind him is a studio prop section of a wooden pole fence. On the reverse of the cabinet card is a red imprint: [E, L, GOFF / PERRY / KANS].
