This was painted by an artist named Miller in the 1870's. He lived outside of Denver, Colorado in a little village named Georgetown. When his granddaughter needed money, she would pull one of his paintings out of her attic and sell it. I remember my family getting this when I was a little kid. We had a Golden Retriever at the time, and that fly on the handle was so realistic it used to drive her nuts! :-) (5 years and 3162 days ago)

Great back story behind this photo! The photo tilts down to the right a bit, if you level it, it will be a visually stronger entry.
