OT Photo Recognition Experts - Calamity Jane?
 

Posting for a friend who found this at a tag sale last week. Looks like her to me, and Charles Eisenmann was a well known photographer who took a lot of famous people photos.

Dan, I've looked at a lot of photos of old west personalities, including Calamity Jane, and I don't think this is her.

She certainly was manly looking...known pic of Calamity below.

This person looks a bit shorter than Mary Jane Canary aka Calamity Jane. It is not this other one either.

Well. Gulp!
She sure looks like she could cause some calamities..... or soothe them 😆

Here's my RPPC for reference. They look similar to me but I'm not an expert.

Dude looks like a lady.

- "lady" looks like a Dude - may be more appropriate.

:D

Right eyebrow is much more prominent in the subject photo and extends further towards the bridge of the nose.

Dan - the girl in your photo has a turned up nose. Cal. Jane certainly did not.

Thanks for the help guys....I will let my friend know the bad news.

Eisenman did a LOT of shoots with performers of all types..... I looked thru a couple of books I own with wild west performers - obviously not Smith, Lillie, Oakley, or a couple of others. I'm not done looking :-) While I haven't spoken to him in a while - might see if Wes Cowan recognizes her.....
