Here is a new addition to my photograph collection. The above is the cropped, close-up showing the entrance to the Juneau Company Wharf where Soapy Smith and Frank Reid shot it out in the Shootout on Juneau Wharf, July 8, 1898. Every time I find and publish a new photograph of the location were Soapy was killed, I think of the historians who post new finds of the lot behind the OK Corral in Tombstone, where the Shootout on Fremont Street took place on October 26, 1881.
     The photograph below shows the entire frame.
