Ray Manley's "Window Rock"

   I've been aware of this photo for many years and, in fact, it inspired the following scene in "The Trickster With The Sidewinder Gaze," a proposed graphic novel by myself and the Top Secret Writer:


Daily Whip Out: "Window of Opportunity"

  This illustrates a scene where the Apache Kid and Beauty barely escape as Mickey Free fires his big Sharps at them through "The Window of Opportunity."

   And, speaking of the Top Secret Writer, I'm flying to Albuquerque tomorrow to speak to one of Paul Andrew Hutton's history classes at the University of New Mexico.
