My name is Terry Frymire my Great Grandfather was the real Dirty Harry. He worked at a printing press where he got the nickname from being seen with ink and oil stains on him and his clothes. His real name was Andrew Harry Thomas also known as Andrew Thomas the Great. He was appointed sheriff during a time when the real sheriff was meeting with a governor or the president during this time there was a reward of $5000 for Billy the Kid at which time he deputised Jesse James. Much of this history is being omitted rather than preserved. I used to be able to find pictures and some history of these occurances on the web not true anymore I'd like to have copies of pictures of him and others but they are no longer accessable it seems. Please email me any copies of pictures or stories that you can find to maxarc101@yahoo.com for my personal collection
