Description
A cigarette smoking trio rest in the Crystal Palace Saloon with an often reproduced historic picture from 1903 of the Arizona Rangers. The Rangers disbanded in 1909, the year of artist Ted DeGrazia's birth.
"The Arizona Rangers were created by the Arizona Territorial Legislature in 1901, disbanded in 1909, and subsequently reformed in 1957. They were created to deal with the infestations of outlaws in the sparsely populated Territory of Arizona, especially along the Mexican border. The rangers were an elite, well-trained, and originally a secretive agency mounted on quality horses and well equipped with modern weapons at the state's expense. The rangers were very effective in apprehending members of outlaw bands."
Their headquarters were in Bisbee, near the U.S./Mexico border.
