HENRY STARR
KING OF THE BANK ROBBERS
OLD BANK ROBBING
MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING
Folks, sometimes – old genealogy and history are found in the western stories of yesterday. Here is one entitled “THE KING OF THE BANK ROBBERS” by Wayne T. Walker who has done extensive research of the life and times of Henry Starr. Intertwined in his life were the good guys and the bad guys, the bank robbers and the officers of those financial institutions. Henry ran up against them all – he was convicted many times and pardoned again and again – yet, even after appearing as himself in the movies – he returned to his one love -
ROBBING BANKS!
Below, I have indexed all the names and places mentioned in this story. Your kinfolk might be there. There were many a western story published – the common ones about Cowboys and Indians are listed on Ebay every day but the rarer ones about the bank robbers of the old west like this one are seldom found. Collectors treasure this issue cause it’s hard to find, seldom read and it’s price guide value rises every day. They are hard to find. I hunt them out because really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest.
Here’s one of ‘em.

Following my retirement, I have dedicated my remaining hours to indexing the Genealogy of our western pioneers. During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf gathering dust. Because Old Western History and Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell.
This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost.
Humbly, I am trying to keep our history alive.
I hope you appreciate the effort.

THE KING
OF THE BANK ROBBERS
By Wayne T. Walker
OLD BANK ROBBING
MEMORABILIA IS RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING
While others clip ads from magazines, I save history. It’s a shame that our past is being lost. It’s as simple as that.
My wife kids me that after I find a piece I like, buy it, read it, research it, take a picture, scan it, write the blurb, pay the Ebay entry fee and commission, that I end up making about 50 cents an hour. But, OH HOW I LOVE THIS OLD WESTERN HISTORY. What a story, Rare Story!!! Great Pictures. You will love it as it was published in this very hard to find, seldom read complete western magazine of many years ago. The issue is in excellent condition, the cover is pristine and in vibrant color.
As clearly stated in my description, this is featured story in a rarely found and seldom read unusual and complete western magazine. I don't give out name of publication or date because I have caught competitors copying my index and work and trying to sell it as theirs. I hope you understand.
Buyer pays postage of $3.50 First Class Postage to U. S., $4.75 Priority Mail. $11.00 Par Avion (Air Mail) for International Mail. Texans must pay 8- % sales tax. Thanks,
Tom
