    I just stumbled upon this and saw that they used this photograph for the Penguin Modern Classics Edition for "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck!

    I think this is more like what the Brokeback cowboys would/should have looked: a little more ragged and rugged than Heath and Jake were dressed.

    My mother has an unfinished Stetson that she got at Girl Scout camp in 1964, and it now looks a whole lot like that hat. (But it's 45 years old and still wearable!) He does kind of look like Lyle Lovett!

    Donovanbeeson, Thank you for offering up the incredible blessing of the article on Pie Town. It is intense and brings the reality of life to an exquisite sense of the struggle of life.
