Re: How I became a hired gun

I was curious about the "American Boys Bill of Rights" in the background of the illustration.

It appears to be an old Daisy advertisement.

AMERICAN BOYS BILL OF RIGHTS

We… The Boys of America believe in these OUR RIGHTS: the right to LIBERTY, hard-won by our forefathers ~ the right to HAPPINESS that comes with the growth of a healthy body and mind ~ the right to TRAINING, thoughtfully planned by parents, school and church ~ the right to OPPORTUNITY, to live, learn, play and grow up in the time-honored traditions of a free people ~ and the right to learn to SHOOT SAFELY. We recognize and accept the responsibility imposed by these Rights. But ~ until we are old enough to vote we expect YOU ~ our fathers, mothers and other citizens who elect America’s city, county, state and federal officers ~ to be eternally vigilant that our RIGHTS be not abridged!

“The rights of the people to keep and bear arms shall not he infringed!”
(Quotation from the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution)

It would do all of us Americans good to remember these "Bill of Rights" as well.
