I always liked the question, "If the cowboys wore masks, why didn't the horses?" Horses were of great interest, and the average guy getting robbed would have noticed not only a lot about the robber, but also a lot about the robber's horse. Saddles could also be quite distinctive. And they tended to be kept, because they were relatively expensive.

You are so right. In the case of Bill Brazelton, he stabled his horse at a place that nobody would think to look for the bandit. The strength of capturing these guys was probably the one who tracked them unless there was a big distinguishing mark on the horse. A hoofprint may tell you more about the animal than a visual inspection.

@mattbatey2597 - Unfortunately, the old photos don't reveal how colourful the clothing was. We can somehow convince ourselves that the actual past was as black and white as old photos and movies. Not only were there/are there natural dyes that can produce shades and tints of green, but "mauve" coal tar dye was discovered by accident in 1856. This was/is a very vivid pinky-purple colour and the first commercial synthetic dye. Other colours became available over the next few decades - I think the first green dye of any value was produced in 1862 and others followed, including malachite green in 1878. However, many of these early dyes were not as permanent as the older, natural, dyes. While the public liked the new bright colours, the manufacturers wanted more permanence. An outlaw, though, might have been persuaded by the colour and not worried (or realised) that it might fade or bleed and stain his skin or underclothes!

I had some family up in Utah durring the early 1910s who knocked over a bank, to disguise themselves they turned all their clothing inside out. It worked. They got away with it. They didn't get away with the counterfeiting they did with it however haha. It was reported in the same issue of the local paper that the robbery was. Luckily rhe didn't connect the two.

Arizona Ghostriders I’d be interested in miners and mining camps in general. I live in a sleepy town called Norwood in NC. Apparently, Norwood use to be a central hub for the surrounding gold mines and was a mining camp called Center before it was incorporated. Some information is on the Norwood NC Wikipedia entry and local cops actually do a yearly presentation on this topic and discuss early law enforcement in this time along with what the town was like before becoming Norwood.

Talking of outlaws and outfits, was the jacket worn by Clint Eastwood in Outlaw Josey Wales inspired by anything real, or was it pure Hollywood-Fantasy?
