I believe that Lucretia Borgia was also a real historical figure. She was noted for poisoning people. One might also want to Search for her or Cesare Borgia.

Cody certainly had a number of guns. One was a percussion .44 Remington that he gave to a friend, noting that it had given him good service.

It's interesting that he favored what was basically a military rifle, not a big sporting Sharp's. I noted the Sharp's carbine in the photo. It's interestng that all the men in the photo are wearing their revovers butt forward.

The rifle in the Antiques section is probably a Winchester M-73. It looks too small to be a M-76.

There was also an exhibit of bird paintings that were done by the artist John James Audubon

The Men's rooms where I work have Audubon prints. He was a remarkable pioneer wildlife artist.
