New Mexico lawman (1850-1908) who killed his former gambling partner, the fabled outlaw Billy the Kid, in 1881. Geo. D. Bowman & Son bank check, 6.5 x 2.5, filled out and signed by Garrett, "P. F. Garrett," payable to J. H. May for $75, December 18, 1900. Nicely matted and framed to an overall size of 15 x 11; there is a window on the reverse so that May's endorsement can be seen. In fine condition, with three unobtrusive vertical folds. A scarce and sought-after autograph in any form, this is the first Garrett check we have ever offered.
