Talk:Josephine Earp

message: I added a cleanup tag. This article needs some copyediting, and the facts need to be cross-checked against the article on Wyatt Earp. There are disagreements between the two. --Srleffler 06:55, 16 October 2005 (UTC)

message: Although I was able to locate the source of the (alleged) photo of Josie, it is my understanding that there are no known photos of Josephine Marcus Earp from her time in Tombstone, let alone a photo by C.S. Fly.  While the photo does resemble her, I have my doubts as to whether or not this actually is a photo of Josie Earp.  Any comments?  Suggestions? SkagitRiverQueen (talk) 22:58, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: There are people who keep discounting the photo of the woman who is half naked, or seductively dressed as Josie, but Josie is the one who put that photo on the front of her own biography book.  So I asked the question, "Why put someone elses photo on your own biography?"  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.216.17.138 (talk) 15:43, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Josie Earp is not the author of "I Married Wyatt Earp" or the person who selected the cover photo.  Glenn Boyer wrote the book and selected the picture on the cover.  Look up "I Married Wyatt Earp" on Wikipedia to see whether Mr. Boyer is a credible source of information.  Look up the subject "Kaloma" or "Kaloma photograph" on Google to see the most likely background of the picture and once again Mr. Boyer's credibility.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.162.23.110 (talk) 00:01, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: On the subject of Josephine Sarah Marcus and the "KALOMA" Poster manufactured by The Novelty Candy Company *Copyrighted for publication in 1914. Just as Josie had stated, The semi-nude, veiled, Female Image used on that poster Is Her -& was originally photographed in 1880 -& so was already under the Photographer's Copyright, from that year on. -So the 1914 Copyright by NC Co. printed at the bottom of the poster was Not Meant to apply to The Photograph -but only to the Exotic Title: KALOMA! The Novelty Candy Company produced those posters as a Morale-Booster for our Doughboys in World War 1. Both Josie & the Photographer would have made a Contract with NC Co. for it's use of Their Image on that Poster -& both Josie & the Photographer would have received a split of the "1'st Run" Royalties on the use of Josie's Portrait. *It Is Definitely Her -& I have more photos of her to Prove That! I hope that Wikipedia can clear this up, because I have no editing skills! -Blue Brown. (71.169.144.146 (talk) 19:04, 5 March 2019 (UTC)
replies: text:  @BlueBrown, as was stated above and is well and clearly established in the article I Married Wyatt Earp, the picture of the semi-nude woman in the peignoir is not Josephine Earp. She did not put that photo on the front of her own biography. The biography was written and published by Glenn Boyer, who chose the cover art. Boyer was asked repeatedly to provide his sources and prove that the cover image was Josie, and when he could not, the book was largely discredited. The book and its cover art are, according to modern academics, possibly the most remarkable literary hoax in American history. Modern research has clearly and finally established that the image originated with the ABC Novelty company in 1914. There is no reliable source substantiating the belief that the image is of Josephine Earp and to keep insisting otherwise is wasting other WP editors' time. — btphelps (talk to me) (what I've done) 06:01, 31 March 2019 (UTC)

message: "Marcus caused quite a stir in Behan's heart, and he left the pursuit in order to spend time getting to know the woman with whom he had fallen in love."
What? This is an encyclopedia not a Harlequin Romance. I'm going to delete this garbage. I'll leave this silliness:
"Soon after arriving in Prescott, however, Marcus became homesick and returned to San Francisco."
for someone else to deal with. "citation required" is NOT sufficient in this situation.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paleocon44 (talk • contribs) 05:46, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Josephine Earp's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "barra":
From Earp Vendetta Ride: 
From Wyatt Earp: 
From Gunfight at the O.K. Corral: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 10:08, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Orphaned references in [[:Josephine Earp]] 

message: In reading this article about Josephine Earp the image of her from :File:Josephine-Sarah-Marcus-c1881.jpg is used. However, I have just been watching a documentary with an interview by an author who has researched the life and photos of Josephine Earp who claims that this is not an image of Josephine. Please see the entire segment at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EgKAbDPsjk0 ("Who Was Josephine Earp? A Photo Analysis by Cary Lane (4/8)", YouTube, 7 minutes). Perhaps another suitable yet authentic image can be found that is not being disputed by biographers and historians. Thank you, IZAK (talk) 11:02, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I added this image. This is the only source I've seen to dispute an image that has long been accepted as a valid image of her. I'll look at the video later and figure out what to do next. — btphelps (talk) (contribs) 17:43, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
