AN INTERESTING ASSOCIATION COPY, with Earp’s doctor’s inscription in a book outlining the “old days” of Dodge City with a dedication to Earp’s friend, Bat Masterson, who joined Earp in Tombstone in 1881 working as faro dealers, or “look outs”, at Tombstone’s Oriental Saloon. They would soon band together again in Dodge City to resolve what became known as the “Dodge City War”, coming to the aid of a friend who had been run out of town by Masterson’s long-time enemy, Larry Deger.
