Description
One of several Frontier Village wanted posters. This one features a character named Mad Millie. She is standing with a rifle in her hands with one of her feet propped up on a man lying on the ground. She is wearing a western-style dress, cowboy boots with spurs, and a cowboy hat. In the background is a cactus and a cow skull. Above the sketch of Mad Millie it says "Wanted." Underneath the sketch it says "alias Mad Millie reward 50 buckskins." Also, there is a narrative that explains Mad Millie's background.
