Thanks Drew,
The photo was taken at a Leavenworth KS studio where 5 men are gathered around a nice cased trophy. With a distance of about 34 miles between Kansas City Mo, and Leavenworth KS, I believe the shooters could have easily been from that general area. When viewing an enlarged image of the trophy, I tried a few different methods (including a reverse negative) to get a better look at the inscription. The more I look, the more I see. The word Kansas is clear at the bottom, and much of the other text is also visible. If you look close you can also see 2 men in the reflection of the shiny trophy, one of which appears to be the photographer standing behind his camera taking the photo. Was curious if perhaps any of these gents might have been a few of the Elliott brothers?

Best, Chris
