The picture was taken at a torture museum in Toledo, Spain.  They have all sorts of sick-looking relics of the days of the Spanish Inquisition.

The sheriff's badge is supposedly a replica of the badge Sheriff Pat Garrett (who killed Billy the Kid) wore. He was the sheriff of Lincoln Co, New Mexico at the time. The original photo was in color, but I converted it to sepia tone to give it a vintage look. The badge and jail keys are replicas, but the whiskey bottle and shot glass are actual 1880's vintage.

   Great picture, Ted. Sepia tone makes it!! Excellent  I spent A LOT of time around Ft. Sumner in my younger years. Good town, good people. Worked on ranches west around Yeso, N.M. Sand, caliche, beargrass, mesquite, lots of big rattlesnakes. Good cowboy country. All the ranches neighbored real good. About 30 days of dragging calves. And some yearlings.

I've posted it before, but it definitely fits under the banner of antique.
