In light of the new release "Heads or Tails" (2025), it should be noted that Buffalo Bill Cody travelled all over Europe: England, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and Spain.
An undated poster for Antwerp, Belgium can be found at both omnia.europea and Royal Institute of Cultural Heritage (Bel)
The dates of the performances for September 18-19 (Monday and Tuesday) only lineup for 1905.
Buffalobill.org site says he and his show were only in Belgium in 1891 and 1906 (neither dates line up).
By 1905-6 one would think that some type of newsreel-style footage of the show would have been shot if not have survived.
If the film is lost, it shouldn't be forgotten.
Both French and Italian filmmakers managed to make films
in 1905-06.
