Yes, that's Doc Ingalls in the big, wide sombrero at left, center. The card sharp Lafitte, lower left and the late Handy, upper right, and in the blue shirt, lower right is Flint Carney. Great group of guys, all working for free, although I gifted them each a book when it came out.
Still wrestling with these fine effects twenty-some years later.
