Here we have another legendary lawman from the Wild West, Wyatt Earp (1848 – 1929), who was caught up in the O.K. Corral skirmish.

Earp, like plenty of those who rose to fame during this time and place, loved to exaggerate his own life experiences and would go on to Hollywood fame. According to History, his later life stages involved Hollywood Westerns as he brought famous directors and actors together. He war mourned by plenty of Western fim celebrities.
