I took these on a 2018 spring trip down through the south west corner of Texas to Big Bend and Mexico with our travel trailer.
The old picture of the Jersey Lilly saloon is a my photo of the original photo that hangs inside the saloon which is now a museum exhibit. The new photo is of the Jersey Lilly as it stands today. The desert preserves stuff pretty well.Roy Bean was a real guy!
If you saw the movie (Paul Newman) "The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean", it is all pretty cool.

There was also a TV program about Judge Roy Bean, "The Law West of the Pecos", that ran for a couple years in the '50s. Starred Edgar Buchanan

I, too, like your photo. Very nice and shameful that a former Texan like me has not been there to see it. The movie remains one of my top favorites and I love Ava Gardner's appearance at the end. How beautiful she was.
