Why It Was Tough To Be A Cloth Salesman In The Olde West!

Billy The Kid (!) is trying to teach "gun-shy" orphan Bobby how to protect himself in the wild and woolly west!


For example...







Jeebus, Billy!!! You "sensed"?!? I mean, you were right, this owlhoot was aimin' to gun you and Billy down. But what if had been just an innocent itinerant calico salesman?? Sheesh...

Anyway, it turns out that this was the guy who had killed Bobby's father, so Bobby later overcame his "gun-shyness" and shot the hell out of him (in self-defense, of course!). All's well that ends well!
